Default Group Comes Through Again

I remember a few weeks but someone talking about a noise coming from the rear bumper. They stated that a bracket had come loose and was making a noise. Well today while driving to lunch, I stated hearing this clicking noise from the rear of the car. After stoping at the resturant I looked under the rear bumper and sure enough the bolt was almost out and the bracket was loose. I hand tightened it the best I could until I got home and found that both brackets were loose.

If it hadn't been for the group I would have been looking all over the car for the sound and would have lost the bolt. Many thanks.

Glad my post helped ya out... I STILL havent gotten the bolts mainly because Ive decided to wait until I take it in for service but I may give my local dealer's parts dept another chance (they gave me wrong part and I havent gone back since)

At least is nice to know I was able to save someone else from the same niusance... my temp. solution was to tape the brackets onto frame... it has held up to 130 MPH (at the track)

Hope your enjoying your ride...be safe!
