Hello,
A few months ago I purchased a used GM Certified 2006 C6 with 30K miles. Recently in this heat wave that we have been having in NJ, I have noticed a weird sound coming from drivers door when I fully open it. Upon further inspection, I can see that the top of the door actually is rubbing against the body panel behind the front wheel. It seems to only happen after it has been baking in the sun for a while. Is this the door expanding due to the heat? Has anyone heard of this? It looks like it is actually starting to rub some paint off. It has a bumper to bumper warranty for another 9 months so I was thinking about bringing it to the dealer, maybe the hinge is misaligned, but I thought I would check here first. Thanks for any help!
