    I have a 2009 DC Sport, V-6 Auto.
    Has anyone heard a ticking noise, that sounds like it is coming from the dash area?

    If your air is on try turning it up a notch and then back down and see if it changes... Just started in my 2010... The blower motor is making a ticking/chirping sound.

    Ticking from the dash sounds like the blower fan. Does it stop if you turn the blower off?

    Pull the cabin filter out and check it. I saw a car in my shop that was basically new- a mouse ate thru the filter and stuff went into the fan area. By stuff, I mean the dead mouse- and it's tail was rattling when the fan was going.

    My rattle was fixed today, It was the plastic air box that locks into the right fender. The foam loosens over time and cause the intake to rattle against the fender. I added more foam, problem solved.
