Summary
Some rear door striker plates were manufactured from material that might have allowed striker plate fasteners to be over-torqued during manufacture, potentially causing the striker plate to deform over time and resulting in a clunking noise in the mid C-pillar area when the door closes.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 60 complaints in the body category.
