ISSUE
Some 2008-2011 Edge and MKX vehicles built on or before 10/25/2010 may experience a popping noise when opening one of the rear doors, typically
the right hand side, especially if the door has been closed for a minimum of 10 minutes.
ACTION
Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
This sound may be caused by the rubber bumper located on the lower rear corner of the rear door inner panel. (Figure 1)
Suction between this bumper and body side panel may cause a pop with door opening if there is a narrow seal gap between the door and body.
1. On the affected rear door, remove the rubber bumper located near the lower rear corner of the rear door inner panel. (Figure 1)
