More Screws to Check

When pressing "1" to lock my entry door, I noticed that the latch moved slightly. I checked the screws on the interior of the latch (there are three Torx screws shown in the photo attached) I found them all a bit loose. I tightened them and now the latch doesn't move when I lock it.

I don't know if latch movement contributes to the latch failures others have reported, but it can't be good. So now we have a few more screws to check periodically.
