Default Cladding

have any of u guys experienced cladding problems, meaning that the cladding is rattling??? I noticed a rattling in my gx lately and thought it was the seats but when i closed the door, something was still rattling. i checked out the cladding and it was it. I paid attention to it this morning and it was the cladding. Have any of u experienced this?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?

I haven't had any trouble with mine. Even the door that has been repaired post accident is quite. If it rattles, you should be able to see it pulled away from the door at some point.

yup, the cladding is what makes ur gx have those fat fenders on the side, which are plastic. to know if it rattles, open the door and press it against the door. mine squeaks when u do that, then rattles on bumpy roads.
