## Discrepancy

DOOR PANEL OPENING Z831 HAS BROKEN HINGE AND HAD TO BE REMOVED DUE TO INTERFERING WITH INNER DOOR HANDLE. SEE IPC 52-11-13-28/10 DURING TROUBLESHOOTING FOUND UPPER HINGE BROKEN IN HALF, ALSO FOUND LOWER HINGE MOUNT ASSY DISBONDED FROM PANEL ASSY. REPLACED BROKEN HINGES ON FWD DOOR LINING IN REFERENCE TO AMM 52-10-13. REBONDED HINGE MOUNT IN REFERENCE TO SRM 52-10-00. CHECKS GOOD AT THIS TIME. THIS CLEARS NEF 25-70-52-10-02.
