Replacement Door Anywhere

Just wondering where a guy can get a replacement door and how much it will cost. I'm sick of this stupid piece of ****** drivers side door that I have that just rattles and has a horrible tin on tin rattle noise when cold. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FREAKING IRRITATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Probably the most annoying sound you can have in a vehicle, pierces through music even when maxed out, and it occurs right parallel with your body. Ford and their team of incompetents can't fix it (ya, even had an illiterate service advisor, so you know your in qualified hands). They say its the window runs being loose as you can push your arm against the window and stop it but noooooooo can't seem to stop it. Out of the box thinking is not a job requirement. All they do is reduce the noise, then 6 months later its louder than before. So I figure just buying a new door will solve this issue.

Just wondering where a guy can get a replacement door and how much it will cost.

Warranty = nothing gets fixed properly. Last new vehicle I get. Had 2 brand new 08s, one blew up and this is a fit and finish nightmare. Great quality control.

I usually buy a new truck when it's time to change the oil. It's easier that way.

Very simple... unless you live in Angola, you need to find a new dealer, a competent one!

I know I was just joking on him.

Either find a different dealer or pull the door panel off and inspect the window track, mirror mounts, etc. Check the window motor to see if it is wearing out and letting the window drop down while driving. Check to see if the door panel is rubbing against the door. See if anything is rattling while shaking the door with the panel off. Check the door hinges for slack. Check the alignment of the door with the body. Keep trying different things.

Yep. I'd just pull the door panel off and drive around pushing on stuff. Chances are you can just place on sound deadener on the parts that are rattling and it would be fine after that.
