rattling, trim slouching on MR
so after taking it to the dealer and have them fix the issue, the rattle/buzz is back with a vengeance. i think whatever they did fixed the initial issue, but created another. on the top of the driver door where is curves into the window, a slight rattle/buzz like a loose spring manifests when i have my radio on, going over bumps. i can recreate the noise by gently tapping it with the bottom of my fist.
the kicker is, if i hold the door handle half way (not quite opening the door) for a second and release, the sound goes away until i open and close the door again. What's happening here? i took it in twice already to fix prev. rattling issues and they say they won't do any more under warranty.
also, my oem dash radio enclosure is slouching down at the top. has anyone had this happen? i'm very careful with my car, so it's def not something i did.

top of your radio has three flat wedges that slide into 3 slots. it is plastic on plastic and will rattle. you can put some thin felt tape on the radio-end and it will fix that problem. its what toyota and honda do on their clips from the factory, not sure why mitsu doesnt
