Technicians installing GMSPO service replacement fenders may find that the fender side hood hinge pivot bolt attachment hole is too large (12 mm).
The hood hinge pivot bolt attachment hole on some service fenders may be too large (12 mm), causing improper retention of the pivot bolt. To correct
this condition, add a M8 X 32 mm O.D. X 2 mm thick washer between the hinge halves on the inboard side of the fender side hood hinge. This will
provide the proper surface for the shoulder of the pivot bolt to contact as it is tightened. Refer to the illustration above.
