ISSUE
Some 2010 Transit Connect vehicles built before 6/1/2009 may exhibit a rattle noise coming from the rear cargo doors. This may be due to metal on
metal contact between one or more of the rear cargo door(s) latches and strikers - left hand (LH) upper latch, right hand (RH) upper latch or LH lower
latch.
ACTION
Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Align the rear cargo doors with the body, per Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-03.
2. Apply Krytox grease (Rotunda part number 164-R4906 - 1-800-768-8632 option 3) to the latches as illustrated. (Figures 1 and 2)
3. Use chassis ears to determine that the cargo door latch is the source of the noise by connecting the leads to the cargo door strikers.
a. If the noise is resolved, no further action is required.
b. If the noise is still present, proceed to Step 4.
