The NTSB released a preliminary report on the accident on February 6, which said that the damage patterns on the door plug indicated that the four bolts, intended to secure the door plug, had been missing when the accident occurred. They also reviewed Boeing records that showed evidence that the plug had been installed with no bolts.<ref name="NTSB Preliminary Report">{{Cite web |date=February 6, 2024 |title=Aviation Investigation Preliminary Report |url=https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/Documents/DCA24MA063%20Preliminary%20report.pdf |access-date=February 6, 2024 |website=[[National Transportation Safety Board]] |id=DCA24MA063 |archive-date=February 6, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240206194507/https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/Documents/DCA24MA063%20Preliminary%20report.pdf |url-status=live}}</ref>
