Purchase a new exterior vent cover of the exact same size. Remove screws in old one, and put aside. Remove old cover.
Inspect the vent to make sure no lint is clogging the vent line, which can cause fires. Clear lint as needed.
Align new vent cover, replace screws and you're done.
Make sure you also check the interior dryer vent hose at rear of dryer for lint build up.
They are really easy to replace. You can buy the replacement on Amazon or Home Depot or Lowes.

Hello there,
Take it down to DIY store and see if they have a replacement, look up Vent cover on eBay or Amazon, as they may have one.
The sell new covers at Home Depot.
Hi Donna. Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, Ace Hardware all sell dryer vents. Take measurements and pick one out that will fit. I like the aluminum kind they are easier to clean and last forever.
Hi! This is what I replaced mine with and it was easy.

Cynthia...my dryer vent looks like the one you replaced. I lost the cap on mine and do you think I could find a replacement for it? NO. Finally found a plastic lid and taped it on the top. Doesn't look very pretty but does work. Now I know where to get the new vent when I need it,
