Like the title says, i have some type of rattling sound happening. It sounds as if its coming from the dash on the passenger side. I can't seem to figure out what it could be....

anyone else ever have this issue? Its freaking annoying as hell.

I have a rattle in the same spot. I found it was coming from the upper glove box lid. It sounds like it is up onto of the dash but when I had my gf push on the lid, it stopped. I have not dug in to find out what part of it is rattling yet though.

had rattle from same area, been 2 the dealer, thre times, they claimed they couldnot reproduce it, Oh yeah? I just smacked the steering wheel with my palm and it rattled that area of the dash. Still, no go.

Got ticked, pulled it into the garage, took out the upper storage area. tightened up some nuts, inside the dash, I could see, placed a rag between ductwork for paasenger side vent and , since I was already int the dash, the middle vent ducts too.

still get araalt,e , now and again, on severe bumps but nto continuos.

Luck figuring it out

Same on my '10. A plastic on plastic tapping sound. Comes and goes. Fackin' used to it. Passengers dont even notice it.

Figure if thats the worst part about a 5 year old vehicle..im fine with that.

I have the same issue. If my girlfriend holds down the front trim at the windshield, it seems to stop. I'm trying to find some sort of guide to remove that front piece and see if I can find anything inside there and maybe just pack some weather stripping in there good and tight, since her holding it down stopped it. Have you figured out anything yet?
