No. *******s in parking lots who don’t give a **** when they open their doors. In the DC area, that’s a huge % of the population.

I went out to my truck in a parking lot on one of the sloppy salty days we had a few weeks ago. White 4 door Chevy was parked next to mine, thought that was cool he was parking in the "truck section". Normally I walk my truck when people are parked next to it but I was freakin freezing that day and just wanted to get home. The next morning I thought I was wiping a big salt spot off my rear door...it was white paint, in a big- a** dent right on the body line! I've watched for that truck for weeks now. Some people are true idiots

Exactly what I’m talking about. Sorry to hear that, man.

This is where I got mine. Legit factory mats.Do you guys buy something like Mopar All Weather mats from your local dealer? So many websites saying they're selling Mopar parts/accessories, but I don't trust them. Plus, shipping for mats from most places is $60+!

I like that, it actually looks paint MATCHED. I’ve seen them so many times where they’re white, but not the perfect shade. Did you have it professionally done?

Idk, got on a muddy road and got stuck in a shallow rut. Put it in 4h and started making a clacking noise. Had to be pulled out with a winch. I pulled the front driveshaft, threw it in the bed, and dropped it off at the dealer today.

Had a similar thing happen to my driver side rear door and my steps stick out a decent amount. They were no help.
A lot of vehicles door edges are more rounded so the bottom curves in and the middle of the door hits your door long
before the bottom hits the steps. Especially rear car doors. Hopefully only another $100 to my PDR guy, they got the door
right on the lower body line but dead center of the door so fingers crossed it's an easier fix.
From the first day my kids started opening the doors themselves I've taught them to be careful opening when I park next to
other cars and respect other people's property (and mine!). It's now ingrained in their minds and was very simple to do.

Thanks. Now that it's getting nice out I'm going to find a good PDR guy and see what can be done. I looked into getting body moulding for that area, but it looks like no one makes it to fit that high on the door (I wouldn't really like that look anyway, but I considered it as a temporary solution). I have full length side steps, but obviously the door on a 4wd that sits up high is going to clear them every time.

Wish everyone did that. If I accidentally cranked someone else's door, I would at least leave a note. That guy hit mine hard, so he KNEW he did it....

Well...thankfully it was the front and you're not dead in the water. And thankfully you have a warranty. I assume the dealer had no problem with you pulling your own shaft.
