09 SC XWD rear anti-roll bar link bolt not tightening

With the warm weather, I have the windows down a lot more often and noticed a strange clunking sound from the rear at low speeds over small bumps. Yesterday I got under the car and realized it was the anti-roll bar - specifically the anti-roll bar link bolt. I went to grab a wrench and began to tighten the nut - it tightened a small amount and then everything started to spin - bolt and nut.
The nut it the only part you can see - I presume the head of the bolt is behind a plastic cap which appears to be filled with grease.
Do you need to pop the plastic cap off in order to tighten this? Or is this part defective?
Clearly this is under warranty but I would love to save a trip to the dealer if it is as simple as just tightening a bolt.
Thanks.
