Where can we find an official bulletin that lays out the details?

She also said that she doesn’t normally get Yaris’s in with this problem, and usually it’s 4runners that they see a lot of problems with bumper attachment. I told her that there really aren’t that many Yarii on the road to begin with. She then told me that in the case with the 4runners, they usually just use an adhesive or glue it because it’s a losing battle with the bumper clips. That makes sense then why they just glued mine the first time. We shall see.

I used JB Weld epoxy on the clips last week and then drove on the worst road around with no further problem.

Would that create a problem if you had to remove the front bumper?
