Some customers may comment that the front outside door handle sticks or hits something when opening the door with the door glass in the full up
position.
Cause
This condition may be caused by a corner portion of the outside door handle coming in contact with the glass sash channel.
Correction
1.
Remove door trim and partial water deflector.
2.
Raise the door handle to the full open and file approximately 3.5 mm (1/8 in.) off the corner of the door handle (see Figure 1). Check for adequate
clearance.
3.
Reinstall water deflector and door trim.
