B pillar rattle

[rogersinsel]

Roger -- What's a "sticker plate?" I might have a problem with mine, based on the noise diagnosis, but I don't know what or where the sticker plate is.

Thanks.

Sorry, I meant striker plate. What the door latch attaches too. This part mounts on the body of the truck in the door jam area. If it is bad your door will sound like it has a rattle.

I will check if thats whats causing mine....

haha Wondered if that's what you meant. Ok. Yeah, mine seems pretty secure, and the sound sounds higher than that. So, I'm thinking my sound is in the adjustable seat belt slider...

That is where I am focusing on. The rattle returned after a few days. I am going to investigate it myself, before I return to the dealer to have it repaired. Mine almost sounds to be coming from the top of the pillar. Near the air bag.

rattle

i had this god awful noise coming from what i thought was the dash, turned out to be when the dealer fixed my onstar stuff, above the rearview mirror, they didn't put the cover 100% snapped in place... about drove me to suicide!

I still have an open issue, since day 1 rattle in driver's door.

they have added insulation, new striker, 4 times to dealer.

I now have an open case with the BBB about the voice commands for the sat nav and this.

I had a somewhere-deep-in-the-dash/gauge cluster/windshield cowl occasional rattle in my '02 that nearly drove me insane. The '09, knock on wood, feels much tighter. This little noise I get somewhere around the seatbelt thingie has nothing on the '02 rattle -- but I'd like to get to the bottom of it nonetheless.

damn i think i got this too, but it only rattles when i start the car in park... then goes away.. did it sound like it was coming from somewhere in the dash??



i also got the pass rear door rattle... are you able to get to this or is this a dealer fix?

My driver's door is rattling, sounds almost like one of the window switches or something is loose. I'll check the striker plate. It is getting worse as the wife can hear it from the pax seat now.

I have an update. I am told that it may be the sticker plate for the door. There is a bulletin out on that as a possible cause. While it is in there the dealer is also going to fix the body creek it has and the drivers door lock rattle. All small issues, but they appear happy to address them. I did not even ask. They did. Wow, a dealer that actually gives customer service.

Roger - Sounds like I have the same issue you do on my 08 Yukon with the door lock rattle. It appears to be coming from both front doors and it drives me insane. When I hear it driving (over bumps and rougher roads), I can at least diagnose that it comes from the lock area by using my forearm to apply pressure on the padding just above the elbow rest. Does that sound familiar to you? If so have you found a fix?

I may also have the striker plate issue, but your the first on the boards I have heard describe a door lock rattle which sounds more like my issue. Would make me so much more content with the truck if I could get this fixed!

Mine is still going on. I'll notice it especially around 50mph and below. I thought it was from the B pillar at first but now I hear it up by where the mirror attaches as well. I checked the striker point and it seems to be secure. Dealer couldn't hear it with their Friday afternoon ears. I plan on bringing it in again. It seems to be the only issue with the vehicle. My wife can hear the rattle on my side but nothing on her side. It has pretty much done it since almost day 1. Dealer said they lubed the seals since the factory doesn't always do it but that didn't seem to help.
