## Narrative
The camber plate nut fell off inside the shock causing me to lose control and go through a field. The camber plate is the only thing holding the strut to the vehicle and should have had a locknut from the factory as it's nothing more than a ball joint.   It is available to inspect.   It caused me to lose all control when it separated.   I own a garage and confirmed failure myself.   No i called Chevy about it and even asked if they wanted to send a factory rep out to look at it. I was told no and the only way they might be able to do anything is if i take it to the dealer for repairs.   It was giving a small clunk at times that i thought was normal characteristics of the aggressive suspension.    I do have pictures showing the failure as well if you would like them.
