2013 with loose headlight
Driving home the other night, some tire tread hit the front grill and popped the grill out of position. Easy enough fix. However, since then, my drivers side headlight is now loose and I cannot figure out how to tighten it. At first I thought I could tighten the star shaped bolt on the light, but that has not fixed the problem. What bolts/screws/nuts etc. should I look to tighten? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I would first suspect a broken headlight mount tab(s). Did the front take a pretty good wallop? Search YouTube or Google for the headlight retrofit videos to access the assembly and take a look see.

jtharp have to remove your bumper and you can use loctite 2-part plastic epoxy (or similar) to glue your broken tabs back (there are 3 mounting points) http://www.loctiteproducts.com/p/epx...tic-Bonder.htm
