Jesse has to see this and make sure he has his spindle nut.

thanks for the heads up

gotta go to the dealer now... i've been meaning to get in there anyway to check the hood alignment

Sucks. Rep for posting it up.

I called up the dealership... found out there is a recall on some 09's for the Windshield Molding..... call your dealerships 09 owners... you might have something wrong... found out i needed a new power steering pump during that trip to the dealership...
