I purchased a 2021 Tahoe in Graywood metallic, we noticed the headlight was rubbing the paint off the bumper cover shortly after we got it. Took it to service, they sent it off and had it painted. About a week after we got it back it started again, had it fixed again and now its doing it again.
Its just under the headlight on the outer edge, is anyone else having this issue? it almost seems like a fitment issue because the bumper and headlight have no gap in between.

you could request the bumper be adjusted, shimmed or even trimmed if needed ?

with out seeing in person, it is just a guess as to the best fix...although it shouldnt be doing it.

sadly, the urethane covers can grow and flex rather easily.

you could do a paint protection film, but that is just a delayed wear item at that point

They will have to make it right, I am sure. Cause that’s ridiculous.
