My door check has been working flawlessly up until a few days ago. I noticed a clicking sound, then it stopped working all together. I figured it had died after 140,000 miles, so I bought a good used one to replace it.
I took the door apart this afternoon to find a surprise!!!
The door sheet metal surrounding the studs for the door check has ripped out from around one stud. The door check bracket then snapped in half.
Anyone have any ideas on a fix? I was thinking of taking the door off and welding a patch plate in there.
I could just leave the door check out and everything would be fine, but I like having it operational.
