Go back to post #657 & #658 .... That should help .. Note..the cutout on the bracket lines up with the cutout on the bumper .. the same as the template.

I don't think so because it is a loud clunk from under the car - toward the rear. In fact, the car even seems to move forward a small bit when it happens.

2007 Denali on EBAY by awf_axis

Here's some pretty good pics of the new Denali. Paste the link in.

I thought I saw a post saying that the headlights on the Denali would be HID. Looks like Halogen.
 
Funny that they would actually step backward. At least with the "lens" style of the previous Denalis, it kind of looked like an HID system.

pretty sure most of the mfgr's discontinued auto-up with windows and sliding sun roofs a while back because of risk liability problems especially with kids getting their heads and whatever caught in them causing injuries and some deaths..... in fact with most of the power window buttons.. to close the window the button has to be lifted as opposed to being pressed for that safety reason..

paint sealant on new cars.. a total and unadulterated waste of money.. ask any body shop.. or in my case a very good friend and retired Dupont VP who was an expert in car paints for them... he laughs when he hears this stuff.. some great b.s. marketing jibberish by dealerships that just comes down to ADP.. Additional Dealer Profit..
 
I'd worry more about how well a car was painted and if it had 'orange peel'..under that clear coat than I would about if it was sealed or not... I'm sure you know what it is.. a wavy ugly crackly looking paint job especially looking down the side of the car... put on a decent coat or two of NuFinish for $4.95 a bottle from Wally World and the paint is a-ok for a long long while..
 
if a dealer says he can't deliver the car without it or that 'it's already done and on it'..... bye bye.. get another sucker to pay for it.. used to be they did the 'undercaoating thingy'... then people caught on since the factory has basically been undercoating for a very long time.. more ADP..
 
and that's why dealers and car salesman get a bad rep...for using crapola tactics like that..

In the few times I've bought new vehicles, its when your brain is fried, after settling on a price, and your sitting in the finance office. While your adrenaline is building, getting ready to sign your life away, they say (for just a few bucks more a month, we have .... x... y ...).
 
You don't know you've been suckered until your blood pressure returns to normal...

The service advisor told me it was not an official TSB (whatever that means). . . Good news is they replaced (both) rear lower control arms and all the noises are gone. The right one was the culprit but they chose to replace both. . .fine by me.
   Gotta say I've got a terrific dealer with a great service department that didn't blow me off when the problem (early-on) was hard to duplicate.

TSB - Technical Service Bulletin. When there are enough problems with a specific issue, engineer(s) at GM will publish a problem description and its solution. Sometimes, it's simply a work-around procedure, or a set of instructions for fixing the problem.
 
Many times, when you find problems, it doesn't hurt to do an investigation for a TSB number. Google works if your good at describing the problem. Also, these forums are a good resourse too.
 
Why? When you visit your dealer, and you can give them a TSB reference, they aren't guessing about what needs to be done. The service techs don't always have the time to stay up to date on all the issues out there, and sometimes the descriptions of problems don't match up to TSB's when they do look for problems in the computer.

Any update to the fix on "L" molding on rear doors? by rockin_ltz
Apr 08, 2006 (6:56 am)
Reply
Has anyone heard of an update to the issues with the L molding on the rear door/windows? I know mine has popped loose and won't stay in place, and I've seen this on other '07's driving around out there.
 
I also remember another post earlier where someone else was having this problem.
 
Supposedly, GM is aware of this...But was wondering if any fix was in place yet for this problem?
