Isolate the rattle with flocking tape. | DO NOT replace the speakers. |
Some customers may comment on a buzz, rattle or vibration noise from the left or right front door speaker when the radio is set on high volume.
The premium Bose® speaker produces more robust low frequencies, which may cause the front door trim panel reflector to rattle or vibrate.
Isolate the rattle by installing flocking tape to the back side of the front door trim panel using the steps below.
