Summary
SOME VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE NOISE FROM THE FRONT DOOR CHECKER INSTALLATION LOCATION (A) WHENEVER THE DOOR IS OPENED. WHEN THE DOOR IS FULLY OPENED, THE DOOR CHECKER MAY BECOME OVER-STROKED AND CAUSE A CRACK AT THE SPOT WELDING AREA AROUND THE DOOR CHECKER. TO ELIMINATE THIS CONCERN, THE THICKNESS OF THE HINGE REINFORCEMENT HAS BEEN INCREASED.
