I havent heard many 08 owners report this problem. Good thread to see who is having the issue with there 08. I still have not had it happen on my 07.

Just bought my 08 last week and haven't had a problem yet. I checked it yesterday to make sure and they do seem a bit tight, so I installed some washers on all 4 corners just to be safe.

I had a box full of washers laying around that I bought from sears a while ago. It runs about 6 bucks. You can do that or just remove one of the screws at the bumper and guesstimate a washer size. It's a phillips and very easy to access. Took a few minutes to do. I also found a thread you could reference from if you'd rather take it to your dealer.
