My wife just sent me these pictures, mentioning that a lady pointed out this part dragging. She says the car is handling fine, but I’m away from home for a few days. Does anyone know what this piece is and what it does?
Since you’ve got the right answer already, my completely unprofessional guess is that it’s a kickstand.
Looks like a plastic splash shield. The little push rivets probably fell out, and now it’s loose.

Awesome, thanks!
Are the minivan and Telluride on the same platform? I was behind a Carnival earlier today, and I swear I saw the same piece dragging under it.

I suspect they share a lot of the same parts.
Yep, it’s plastic and seems to be just a protective piece. Mine did the same thing. I zip-tied it back up a few months ago, and it’s been fine since.

Thanks for the tip!
Probably not that though.

Mine fell off on both sides. I ended up just ripping them off since they didn’t seem to serve any real purpose except to break.
