How does a vehicle’s alignment change, if it’s all secured with bolts/nuts?

What changes, mechanically, when a vehicle’s alignment changes due to driving conditions? Do the bolts loosen, does metal bend, or is it something else?

You hit things, metal bends. Vehicle allignment depends on multiple structural elements connected together. The resultant of their arrangement is the sum of their dimensions and placements. Small changes can result in big displacements. It doesn’t take much to screw up the allignment.
