I don't know if this is the same thing. Today I parked facing forward and was, unbeknownst to me, on a high curb. When I backed out, I heard a crunching/grinding/awful sound. Didn't think too much of it (figured it was just the bottom of the front bumper scraping a bit louder than I have heard before) but when I got home I noticed that there was a bit of a space where the bumper "connects" to the rest of the car. On closer examination, I see that a screw enclosed in a screw casing has pulled out.
My car is 7 years old and in pretty good shape (people think it is much newer). Any idea how much something like this could cost to repair --- and does it really have to be repaired? I don't think there is any way the bumper would actually pull off unless someone tugged at it, but I guess it has also lessened the protection the bumper should provide.
Help, please. WHat should I do? I'm tempted to put some duct tape on it and just let it be.......
