Took my truck in last week for an oil change, noise in the a/c and some warranty work but just noticed this gem underneath my brake light when I washed the truck today...

I'm thinking deep throught c clamp and some wood/towel combo to in-creas it? What say Yous?

Ugh, that sucks man. Sorry that happened.


What are you looking to do? Make it mint again? Or just band aid it for now?


You can try bringing it in and showing them. But being over a week now, might be hard to prove they did it.

You can pop out the taillight and try knocking it out from the back side.

You can check with a paintless dent removal guy. Which is what I would do first, before finally going to a body shop.

I pulled the light already and can feel the dent but there's no room to beat on it. I think I'm gonna try a deep c clamp with a piece of wood on the outside and see if I can finesse it out slowly. It's kinda sharp so I'm afraid of the paint cracking.

Looks similar to the dent I put on my truck only a week after owning the dang thing. Backing up in the garage and forgot about a shelf I was working on and put a pretty good dent in it. Took it in and they had to do a small patch. Mine was about 3" vertical on the tailgate and you can't even tell it ever happened. $200, but well worth it so I didn't have to explain it every time someone noticed it lol
