I pushed the white wire back in its channel and plug is back working.
I didn't have a remodel electrical box and plug to replace it all with a standard residential style plug but will do so if it causes me problems again.
Thanks all for the comments

Had a similar issue with our outdoor outlet under the awning. Because of the connection on those outlets, I ended up replacing all 5 of them on the GFCI (and replaced the GFCI), using residential outlets and a shallow box for the walls. Instead of dealing with no power at the campground, I just went ahead and replaced them all while it was sitting in storage between camping trips. BTW, found 3 of the 5 outlets contains wires that were about to wiggle free. I really don't like those outlets.
