Abstract: An apparatus for alleviating window buffeting noise and associated vibrations along a rear window of an automotive vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a baffle received in a recess of a B-pillar. The B-pillar is located forward of the rear window, and the baffle is disposed vertically along the B-pillar. The baffle extends over at least a portion of the height of the opening to the rear window. An actuation mechanism moves the baffle outward of the B-pillar when the window is lowered to a predetermined lower position, such that the baffle deflects air flow and thus reduces window buffeting along the open window. The actuation mechanism also retracts the baffle back into the B-pillar when the window is raised to a predetermined raised position, at which window buffeting is no longer significant.

Abstract: In an example, a vehicle door module has a carrier carrying a plurality of functional door hardware components. The carrier defines a wet side facing towards a door cavity and a dry side facing away from the door cavity. The door includes an inner door panel having a front pocket and a rear pocket. The carrier includes front and rear latch presenters and carries front and rear door latches on the dry side thereof which seat in the front and rear door pockets. The latches are connected to reinforcement plates which are connected by fasteners at positions surrounding the door pockets thus enabling each latch to be easily accessed for service by simply removing the corresponding reinforcement plate, which may be located under an easily removed interior trim panel.
