Official summary

Some 2017 mkc vehicles may exhibit a buzz/rattle noise from the left side of the defrost vent trim panel. This is due to the defrost vent trim panel contacting bare metal on top of the cowl close to the windshield. Follow the tsb service procedure steps to correct the condition.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
