Crashed car due to camber kit. Pics
Well long story short My kinetix camber kit driver side traction bar just broke off at the weld. I was not racing or acting in a irresponsible in anyway.I save that for the track. I was going 40 thank goodness I wasnt on the freeway. I went into a spin hit a curb then a tree. Pretty bad.
here are a couple pics from my phone
mass damage
look at the back tire that traction bar just broke off.
Im posting this because I have read that this kit does this and since I experiened it and could have hurt or even killed someone I dont recommend anyone get this product and if you have it on your car get it off. I posted in a earlier thread how great this kit is, I change my mind!

I can't express my concern and relief that nothing happened to you.
I'm just glad that you and your son are ok being a father of 3 myself.
Certain camber kits never looked right to me incl the kinetix.
I did a great deal of research on it and everyone that had them sold them eventually down the line. Why would someone with a great product eventually sell.
I'm glad that I waited for the SPC front and rear kit.
I would hate to think something like this would happen to me while I have my family in my car.
I hope you start looking into legal representation for putting you and your family in harms way.
When you get a chance can you take pictures of exactly where it broke and the damage(clearer Pictures incl suspension area?.

If the installed looked fine and it didn't break at the install points, I would say its not the dealers fault its more of a product defect.
