Should Bumper of 2015 Cadillac SRX get Crushed When Roadmaster Base Plate Kit is Installed
Question:
I’m installing the Roadmaster base plate on my 2015 Cadillac SRX. I noticed that when you tighten the 3” bolt that goes through the bumper, it crushes the back of the bumper. It doesn’t appear to hurt anything, just making sure that this is normal.

When we installed the Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-523162-4 on an SRX like your 2015 model we did not find that it was crushing the bumper as the bolt was torqued. I would make sure you are using a torque wrench that is calibrated.
