My rear bumper just fell off...wtf!

 

did it just fall off goin down the road? or is ur ___ so big it got caught on somethin LOLj/k

 

it just fell off, luckily i was pullin gon to my street.

well it didnt fall off, it's hanging off. the plastic brackets holding it on cracked so it split. They better give me a new one, because this one is all scratched and ugly. pics to come.

 

hahah....its kinda funny....but how? my lip is coming off a little in the rear, going to bring it to toyota and tell to fix it soon...maybe this weekend.....

 

How? i have absolutely no idea, I saw a cop who was checking out my car 70 yards before I pulled into my drive way, i'm pretty sure if it was hanging off then he would have said something. So to the best of my knowledge, it just came off. Maybe the brakcets had been starting to crack and a bump or so water(been rainy here) caused it to completely bust. who knows.

They just called and said to tie it on very securely and bring it to them in the morning, so lucky me doesnt have a car tonight, the one night when i go out, the one night when the cute girl from the shoe store said she wanted to come out. the box is a cockblock.

 

That's a VERY SAD STORY i'm sorry to ehar about ur misfortune...in fact would u like to use my box as a loaner for the evening? no sex in mine though....

The whole bumper or the bottom skirting? I had the clip to my bottom skirting break and it would bow out in the middle of the rear. I zip-tied it until I get to the dealer.

Dang, I'm gonna have to go see them soon, my list is starting to grow...

Bumper skirt clip, cracked rear passenger window trim, and now my headlights are looking crackly in the glass up front. Anyone have that happen?

 

So i go to pick up my car today, they put the ____ed up bumper back on. Told me it wasn't covered under warranty because "something broke it," if it had "just broken" then it would be covered. He says I hit something, but couldnt explain how there was no scraping from what I hit, just that it took it off. Then said I must have run it over, but couldnt explain how nothing else was harmed.

Then told me I should "feel lucky it was fixed free of charge."

WTF.

 

"hi, ScionCorp? i'd like to talk about one of your dealers...."

any pics? this sounds really odd.

 

only pics of the fix. I had planned on taking some this morning 'cause my camera was dead last night, but my mother took the car in before I woke up. Ya, I think calling the corporation might be in order.

But should this be covered? Or am I just going to be someone _____ing about something that "technically" i have no right to complain about.

Another thing is, the service manager said they replaced the original plastic pins with nuts and bolts so it would hold. which makes me think he thought the original parts werent adequete. And now the stupid thing makes a clunk upon acceleration and braking.
