DETAIL
Reports have been received through the Range Rover 4.0 SE nerve center, that identify an audible click coming from the bottom corner of the windscreen, in the area where the "A" post meets the facia.
This occurs when driving on uneven road surfaces or when cornering. It has been found the audible click is a result of the facia assembly coming into contact with the "A" post structure, due to a lack of clearance between the two assemblies.
ACTION REQUIRED
Upon customer complaint or at predelivery inspection, if an audible click can be heard coming from the facia area, follow the procedure below.
