Condition
Some customers may comment on a squeak or rattle noise from the steering column area. Upon further investigation, the technician may find the noise
coming from the steering column I-Shaft grommet.
Cause
This condition may be caused by incorrect alignment of the pass-through grommet, located on the steering column I-Shaft. Due to the shape of the hole
in the dash, the grommet must be aligned properly. The alignment arrow (1) on the rubber grommet should align with the line (2) on the dash mat. This
can be seen from inside the vehicle, directly behind the brake pedal.
Correction
1. Verify the customer's concern.
2. Locate the arrow and line marks by the brake pedal (1).
3. Remove the instrument panel insulator panel. Refer to Instrument Panel Insulator Panel Replacement in SI.
