Chevy Camaros Exhibit Front Shock Tower Cracks
Some owners of 2016-2019 Chevy Camaros may comment about cracks on the front shock tower(s) near the strut top mount.
The cause may be a hard impact such as a curb or pot hole that drives a great deal of energy up through the strut tower. If cracks are found, the shock tower must be replaced.
