Bumper Cover

Starting to replace the rear Bumper fascia requires first opening the rear compartment followed by vehicle elevation and support. A replacement requires workers to disconnect the tail lamps along with their pair of push-in fasteners maintaining the top fascia attachment to the rear panel and then separate the lower fascia fasteners from the absorber. The rear wheelhouse panels require loosening before you extract the single nut connecting the fascia to each quarter panel. Seize the opportunity to remove the rear park assist wiring harness connector while a helper gently pulls the fascia back to be taken off from the vehicle before collecting all brackets, clips and accessories for future use. Install the fascia by first adding old brackets and clips to the new fascia before helpers position this fascia on the vehicle. Hookup the rear park assist wiring harness electrical connector then fasten the top of the rear fascia push-in fasteners to the rear end panel following the fastener notice. Start by screwing the quarter-panel one nut until it reaches 25 n.m (18 lb ft), then install the three fasteners at the bottom of the rear fascia to the absorber. Put back the rear wheelhouse panels together with the tail lamps then seal the rear compartment.
