Anybody else got rattles in the rear door ??

Got ~ 8200 mi. on my H3.

Thought the rattles came from inside the upper trim assembly, but I spotted the friction clips so took it to the dealer for inspection. Shop folks at the dealer thought it was (perhaps) the stop light lens was loose, so they broke 5 out of the 6 clips holding the trim when they were taking it off, and had to order a new upper trim assembly, which took several weeks to get.

Finally got it installed, and the rattling got worse. Found the problem today. The pressure equalizer on the back door behind the spare tire was loose and rattling. Looks like a design issue to me. The part looks o.k., but the clips holding it appeared to be too short.

Stopped the rattling by using two thick pieces of double-side tape top and bottom (left the cover on the outside of each piece and stacked two top and two bottom) to take up the slack between the clips and the inside of the door. No Rattles Now.

Very Nice Vehicle, Excellent Ride.

Need a recall on the pressure equalizer.
