Hatch Squeaking / Missing Rubber Bumper - OEM Replacement Parts

Body/Interiorbeginner✓ OP Confirmed

Problem

Missing or worn-out rubber bumper cushions on which the rear hatch rests when closed. The hatch has two conical rubber bumpers, one on each side in the corners, and two side stopper cushions bolted in place. Over time these harden and deteriorate, leading to squeaking and improper hatch seating.

Root Cause

The OEM rubber hatch bumper cushions deteriorate, harden, or fall off over time, eliminating the cushioned contact point between the hatch and the body.
