Condition
Some customers may comment on any of the following conditions:
| • | a rattling noise coming from inside the door or the door panel |
| • | a poor fit of the inner door panel |
| • | a loose door panel |
Cause
Engineering has determined that some of the door panel clips may have been damaged during assembly.
Correction
DO NOT REPLACE THE DOOR TRIM PANEL.
Remove the interior door panel and inspect the clips for damage. Replace the clips if necessary and reinstall the door panel. If the clips are not missing or damaged, it is possible to correct the customer's concern by reinstalling the door panel, ensuring the clips are fully seated.
In the event that the customer's concern is NOT related to the clips or corrected by reinstalling the door panel, submit a Field Product Report (refer to bulletin # 02-00-89-002F). This information will provide engineering with the cause and correction of the customer's complaint.
