Oshawa - Didn't install some parts on my Camaro
I've noticed that my 1SS had some "odd" slapping/knocking noises coming from the rear end of the car when going over bumps.
Today, I closed the trunk lid and I heard a loud rattle on the driver's side by the rear tire. I tapped on the rear bumper cover near the driver's side rear wheel and made a lot of noise and it moved quite a bit. I looked and found that three of the screws that secure the rear bumper cover and the rear wheel fender liner together were NEVER installed. Luckily, I had some screws available to me that fit. OMG somebody skipped something while this one was on the assembly line. VIN: 8783

I'm sure this is a very rare problem. Make sure to screw them very tight.
