On my passenger side of the car on my SS/SC the bumper around the bottom of my headlight is coming out. Its popping out around the bottom of the headlight. Does anyone else bumper do this? I may even have the headlight in wrong and not all the way. Ill try to provide a pic.

 

Welcome to the club... its pretty common.

 

So yours does it too? Is there a way to fix it? God I hate it!!!!

 

lol.. mine is the same! and i cant fix it lol i tok out the head light to try and get it fixed, i was going to go the dealership and ask them about it but than i saw that half the ppl here have this problem lol so i gave up

 

yup same problem mines is the passanger side there also a gap between the headlight... much bigger then the oen on the driver side.......

 

Im not sure what happen? It seemed like as soon as it got really hot and humid this summer it popped out. My drivers side is perfect fit but the passensger sticks out with this ugly gap under the light, but the side and everything fits fine. I noticed if i pull up on the bumper a but it fixes the gap so I made do a little modification.


Might be able to stick a 1/8 or 1/4 piece of ply or plastic between the support and the styrofoam behind the bumper to lift it up.

 

There is a bulletin on this problem. There's a thread about this in the Problems & Service area and I've posted the bulletin. The fix is to remove the front fascia and lower the mounting bracket 4-7 mm.

 

I am surprised know one told him to search.

yea there is a thread about this, it seems that GM knows about it and istnt fixing it on new models and the dealerships dont know that GM has a way to fix it.

 

i noticed it too. but who cares it's fast!

 

Ummm, shouldn't we be able to make the dealer do this?

 

really should we get GM involved and tell them they need to tell there dealerships how to fix it. I talked to a bodyshop guy at the chevy dealership and gave him the print out of the post on how to fix it, he told me that he didnt see how that would fix it since it really looks like the bumper is to big for the car. He said that the problem gos back to GM and there manufaturing of the bumper.

 

Boooo. I did do a search and found nothing, but that may have been due to the fact I didnt know what to exactly search for or what you guys were labeling it.

 

Wow I thought ti was because I had a slight bump one night when I hit my friend. Turns out this is a common problem! wow...
