Condition
Some customers may comment on a rattle or squeak noise coming from the front floor console area.
Cause
The lower bezel of the front floor console cupholder door may have too much lateral movement, causing an intermittent rattle noise.
Correction
Add a new 1 mm (0.04 in) felt washer to the passenger side pivot point of the cupholder door (1). There will be two felt washers after the addition of this
washer. This should aid in reducing the rattle noise.

Remove the IP cluster bezel. Refer to the Bezel Replacement - Instrument Panel (I/P) Cluster Replacement procedure in the Instrument Panel,
Gauges and Console sub-section of the Service Information (SI).
