Service VME - Driver Door Trim Panel Itch / Creak - kw front interior noise trim

The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom described in the PI.

A driver may encounter an itch or creak type noise coming from the left front door trim panel especially if pressure is applied to the door trim panel when an occupant rest their knee against the door panel while driving. When the noise occurs, apply hand pressure to the woodgrain trim just above the power window switch; this procedure should eliminate the noise. Another area of concern is the outer edge of the power window switch assembly making contact with the door trim panel. Applying a strip of plastic tape under the trim assembly should eliminate the itch. A field fix is currently in process.
