    I have done the searches and read hundreds of posts about rattles. I don't recall this particular rattle, but I may be wrong. If it bothers you to read about another rattle issue, please move on. Nothing to see here. But, if you're willing to offer advice, it's much appreciated.

    Had the truck for approx 2 years and it's been rattle free other than the speaker cover/A Pillar rattle. About a week ago, I noticed a new rattle that was pretty reproducible coming from the passenger dash area. I've noticed that I can stop the rattle by pushing on the floor of the glove box or by pushing on the glove box door in the open or closed position. I don't see any screws to take the door off. Was hoping to remove the door and see if the sound was associated with the door. It doesn't feel loose or anything like that. I know there is a wire harness behind the black pad that sits above the glove box, so maybe that's in contact with the top of the glove box. But, have any of you had issues with the glove box door or loose screws? I don't see any screws really to tighten other than two on the top part of the glove box. By the way, I hear it whether the glove box door is open or closed so it's not rattling in the closed position.

    Thanks for any thoughts.
