Front bumper attachment defect

[SUNRUNER]

Front bumper pass side where it attaches to fender poppin out. tried pushing it back into clip that holds it to fender but keeps popping out. This is on a '16 hatchback. My daughters '14 hatchback has same problem. Im curious if there are other hatchbacks with similar bumper problems and if there are any solutions to this.

The plastic warps over time.
You learn to live with it or drill and hoke and put rivets

is it a pop IN clip, or a slide OVER clip?

One solution

I took the car back to the dealership since its under warranty and showed it to them. They first tried replacing the clips and that didnt work so they replaced the front bumper which solved the problem. I was told the clips are one shot deals and the original ones were defective.

Front fascia issue

I had the same issue since day one on my 2016 RS. The left front fascia right under the corner of the headlight kept popping out. Brought to the dealer under warranty to get fix. Tech said the bracket wasn't aligned correctly. Fix now for no charge. He told me it wasn't correctly positioned and had to raise it to correct the issue. Been two months now with no issue.
