Ground Effects Recall ?
Anybody else having any trouble with the front chin piece of their ground
effect pkg coming off? I picked up my SS at the dealer and got 200 miles down the highway, and stopped for gas, and found my chin piece dragging on the pavement. Called the dealership and they did some checking and found a recall on the ground effects package. They say I can't get the new piece until late July, so I'm driving my new car around missing the front piece.

Correct me if I am wrong...but are the dealers the ones installing the ground effects? Most dealers....if in fact there is a recall....would not install them on a vehicle fully knowing as such.
