| 1998 | STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS | THE PASSENGER-SIDE DOOR PANEL, CALLED CLADDING, CONTINUES TO COME LOOSE. THE FIRST TIME, I HEARD A LOUD RATTLING SOUND AND HAD TO PULL OVER. THE SIDE PANEL, A VERY LARGE PLASTIC PIECE WHICH EXTENDS THE LENGTH OF THE DOOR WAS HANGING ON BY ONLY ONE PLASTIC CLIP. I TOOK THE PANEL OFF BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID THAT IT MIGHT FLY OFF AND HIT SOMEONE ELSE'S VEHICLE. I WAITED FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS BEFORE THE PART EVEN CAME IN BECAUSE IT WAS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER. I AM CURIOUS TO KNOW IF THIS PART IS IN SUCH A HIGH DEMAND BECAUSE OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE SECOND TIME, I SIMPLY CLOSED MY DOOR AND NOTICED THAT THE SIDE PANEL WAS ONCE AGAIN, BARELY HANGING ON. THE SAME PART IS STILL ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THIS TIME I HAD THE BODY SHOP LOOK AT THE PANEL TO SEE IF THEY COULD REPAIR THE PANEL AND THEY DID HAVE TO REMOVE THE PIECE BECAUSE THE PLASTIC CLIPS ON THIS PIECE WERE ALSO BROKEN. |
