Front bumper cover cracked inside left front wheel well where bumper wraps around. Crack began when object in garage was "bumped". Cover material so thin that cover was damaged. Cost to replace was $888. 00 at dealership. If material and/or design was better, this never would have happened. Manufacturer wants no part in replacing or fixing the problem. Told me to send it to my insurance carrier. My complaint is the poor material involved and that gm wants repairs for poor quality repaired or replaced on the back of a consumers insurance.
