I've had my new LC back at the dealer to correct an annoying rattle inside the interior door panel... on the driver side, near the top, before it curves toward the window. At first I thought it might be something coming loose or a rod vibrating against a part inside the door.. applying pressure on the panel or window didn't stop the rattle.
They claim it's a door panel "clearance" issue...
To correct the problem the dealer must have affixed some sort of adhesive or double-stick tape to the panel and reinstalled it. Yes, the rattle went away for a few days but is back again due to poor tack in the adhesive.
Now it seems worse because they disassembled the damn thing.
It appears they tried to do a quick and dirty job... I called the SM and told him to order a new panel and I want it fixed right. He sounded nervous saying "this isn't good because it's coming back for the same problem twice." He was compliant and ordered the panel, in addition to some other parts they screwed up while fixing a few other minor annoyances.. I'll spare you the details.
I've read all the posts how to remove the panels, however I need to know what's between the panel and the door, if anything? They claim the factory places foam between there..
Any insight will be appreciated.
