Hey, I have an annoying dash rattle coming from drivers side vent/ pillar area. It sounds like plastic pieces rattling inside the vent /dash. I have read the threads about the plastic door trim pieces but im convinced its not this, more inside the dash/ vent. Has anyone experienced this? Let me know. I dont really want to tear the dash apart at this point, thanks

I have this rattle right now. Going to pop off that top left dash piece and see if I can get to the bottom of it soon.

Sounds crazy but I bet it’s the engine splash guards in the wheel well! I had the same rattle, it did sound like it was from the A pillar at times, took them off put 2 layers is electrical tape over the mounting hole cut an X and reinstalled the splash guards, problem solved!

When I am experiencing the rattle and press on the dash in the top left the rattle goes away, which leads me to believe it is localized to the dash. Will take a look at this regardless. Thanks.

I have a few rattles that come and go depending on temperature. The JBL speaker rattle, an A pillar rattle, and a rattle below the infotainment screen. They were more prevalent in the summer minus the JBL speaker, when they come back I plan to take it in because I am tired of chasing them.

Taking mine in this Monday. Been chasing a rattle that’s coming from the area where the a pillar, driver ac vent and door is. Tried everything from foaming the secret cubby, padding behind the triangle on the driver door, padding underneath the driver side dash tweeter and a pillar. It’s driving nuts because it only happens on the cold when going over bumps.

Did you check the splash guards as suggested by earlier comments?
