Question
Bob Miller
My passenger side door will rattle like crazy on bumps. For many months I thought it was the passenger seat but after a lot of trial and error and trips to the dealer its definitely the door lock/striker. The dealer replaced the actual door lock mechanism but it still rattled after that.
My solution to stop the rattling (sounds like typewriter ticking noise) I would hear on bumpy roads has been to wrap some black gorilla brand tape around the outside of the door striker loop. It has worked beautifully but I think after a couple of weeks it starts to wear out or something and I start to hear faint rattling again, which makes me have to re tape it, which I don't want to do anymore.
The striker appears to be lined up with the latch pretty much dead on (just eye balling it), but I'm just wondering if the striker should be adjusted on the B Pillar inward (towards the middle of the truck), or outwards?
