Rear wheel wells are warping/bending out.
I have this on both side. Anybody else seeing this?

Just wondering....how many km's / or miles.... on your car, and how old are your current tires?

The corner piece on the passenger rear bumper cover where my wheel well is slightly warped outward. It's been that way on my car since I bought it. I just haven't had a chance to take it in to see what my dealership will do about it. Can you post pics; I'm curious to see if the warping is similar to how mine looks?

I have the same thing going on, perhaps I will have to hit up the dealer again in the coming weeks. Seems like every time I turn around the dealer has my car again!!!!
 Gotta head out of town for work next month perhaps I will drop it off then......

I just did this the other day for a combination of what you're describing and my bumper being tapped by some jackass .... :
There's a small screw underneath where it's warping. Loosen it up and straighten the edge of the bumper. Then, carefully tighten the screw while holding the bumper in aligmnent. Mine is near perfect where I got tapped, and the other side is perfect. |

Exactly, mine was like that when it was delivered, I just loosened the screw, aligned and gently tightened the screw. All straight.

OP, that's exactly what I'm seeing on the passenger side rear bumper of my car. Looks like I will need to loosen the screws on both sides and see if I can get the corner straight. If not I'll be having my dealership check it out.

Tried the fix mentioned to no avail, it's warped past that point. But I also have paint starting to flake off the edge of it now.......

Just looked at mine this evening, I don't even have a screw in the whole. Glad I didn't pick it up going down the road and blowing a ****ing tire....
