Default Loose Exhaust Tip

Hey guys,
Have any of you had to fix an issue with one of your exhaust tips becoming loose? I just washed the car this afternoon and noticed that the passenger side lower tip seems to be only hanging on by the top weld. Any ideas for a quick fix?

Thanks,

Kevin

Yeah a few have had one and even both fall off. A quick fix is take it to a shop to get tack welded on again. Or if your under warranty then I'd do that choice first

JB weld holds anything

I guess we should start our own documentation...

Year & Miles??

The quick fix is that you bring it in to your local dealer and have them replace it under warranty...
