What a pain in the A$$
Have had stone get stuck between heat shield and the caliper of front wheels at least a dozen times already.
This is getting stupid!
Can someone please recommend a fix?

It’s happened to me twice so far. They recently resurfaced the road to my office and when they were done they just left all of the gravel there rather than sweeping it up. It’s like driving down a gravel road now.

The first time it happened I picked one up while pulling into the work parking lot. It fell out pretty quickly after pulling out of my spot in the evening.

The second time it happened I picked one up while leaving work. I stopped in a Lowes parking lot to try to get it out…drove in circles forward, reverse, stopped and tapped on the shield with a wrench, drove in circles again, etc. Nothing would get it out. I eventually just said fuck it and continued on my drive home so I could work on it there. After about 20 seconds at 70 mph on the freeway it flew out.
Have got to try this
How far did you push out the shield?
