Some of the above subject vehicles may experience a binding condition during sliding door opening. This condition can be caused by a broken or worn
center track roller bearing. If the center track roller bearing breaks or has excessive wear, the sliding door operating effort increases and may deform the
center track. This condition may occur when opening or shutting the door. To correct, it is necessary to replace the center track roller bracket, center
track assembly and install a new lower track striker/bumper assembly. A new lower track striker/bumper assembly is necessary to prevent door
components from being damaged when the door is forcefully opened. The only difference between the new lower track striker/bumper assembly and
original assembly is bolt hole locations. The hole locations have been moved rearward approximately 15 mm.
VEHICLES INVOLVED Use the new Striker/bumper assembly on vehicles built prior to the following VINs:
