Does anyone have an tailgate/bumper alignment issue that may cause the rear tailgate light cap out of alignment?
I recently found my car has this issue. The right side of light cap looks like it is not installed well (see attached photos), and then I found the whole tailgate is slightly higher on the right side. I brought my car to the service center, but they say tailgate/bumper/light cap/hitch are all installed correctly. Just wondering whether anyone has similar issue like me.

Thanks.

Not had this issue. But its obvious that the light cap is either misaligned or faulty...

Hi I'm presently in my local dealers and just taken a look round their yard. A good mixture of brand new and used. It does seem to be a bit hit and miss i have seen some brand new ones looking exactly like yours and other fairly flat. Same with older ones my18 some ok some stood proud.
