My rear cargo door seams to be a little loose on the latch side. I've been hearing a thump when I hit larger bumps so I checked to ensure the spare was still mounted well. I grabbed the tire and I could hear/feel the door move a little on the latch. Anybody know how to adjust?

The dealer has a latch fix that is about 15.00.. It replaces your existing latch with a better catch.

Easy install. 10 mins max.

Well worth the investment.

Thanks, I'll get it Friday and consider it done.

Hmm, I'll have to have a look at mine too. I hear the thump once in a while but always thought it was the latches on my cargo cover.

Just a note, I loosened the two torx bolts to the latch and found them adjustable. I moved the entire mechinism back and all is well. I may get the latch fix anyway. Thanks again
