Rear hitch cover keeps coming loose and screws disappear.
When vehicle was under warranty the dealer eventually replaced the whole rear section as the cover had fallen off twice and been lost, as well as the screws.
At $50+ for the cover and $9 each for the screws I was happy that the issue was solved... until recently when it has happened again!
Out of warranty and luckily I have the cover although it's pretty scuffed.
Any help/ideas on how to better control this annoying issue without going drastic with the Gorilla Glue???
The screws are 1/4 turn thumbs and appear to lock in well enough to secure.
I'm thinking that over time they somehow vibrate loose...
