Door armrest is loose...anyone experience this?

I am assuming all I have to do is tighten the bolts under the armrest. It is only loose at the backside the front where the handle is at is still fine. Anyone had this problem?

Alot of times the screw holes in the door hog out.

If the screw won't tighten, just remove the door panel and use a ball pien hammer to "adjust" the holes back flat again.

By smacking them with the ball end the hole will get smaller.
