    I have a rattling type noise when driving on bumpy or rough roads. Sounds like it's under the dash on the passenger side. Anyone know? Is their a fix that doesn't involve ripping the dash out?

    Take glove box out? Look for stray wiring clacking on plastic or the steel crashbar?

    My 07 had a rattle in the middle of the dash near the glass. If I put my hand up there it would stop rattleling. I fixed it when I had my windshield replaced. There is a 2mm gap between the top of the dashboard and the defroster vents that was causing the problem. I put a small silicone bead on it and no mo rattle. At least no from there.

    Lol! I have the rattle in the center of the dash too but that one doesn't bother me near as much as the one by the glove box.
