CX5 Shark Fin Antenna Lifted Up

[meldxb]

Hi, I noticed that my shark fin antenna has slightly lifted off the roof leaving a not too noticeable dent on the tip of the roof. The antenna is now loose and it has a gap in between the roof and the base of the antenna. I don't recall hitting the garage door but it could have also been vandalism. I am just edgy that water and debris could find its way inside. I believe that the bolt needs to be tightened. It would be a great help if anyone encountered a similar problem and what they did to fix it.

If you wanted to do it yourself, you'd probably have to lower the headliner to tighten it from underneath, otherwise go to the dealer and have them look at it.

Is it loose and able to rotate it or lift it up and down? How much distance between the antenna and roof? 1/64; 1/32/ 1/16 inch or ?

This mayhap is a dealer visit.

There is a thread somewhere that shows how to tighten/seal the shark fin...

You could always just fill it with caulk. Don't read that last sentence out loud if you're not alone, though.

They have some pretty tight garages in Canada sometimes.
