Default rattle/noise/vibration driver side dashboard?

anyone else?

its not horrific but sounds like something plastic is loose and rattling/vibrating...

noticed mostly in acceleration from a stop and even light bumps in the road...

going to try and track it down this weekend...

too early for her to be a rattlebox ! (4k miles)

A few of the guys found an issue with the dash mounted center channel speaker grille cover... take a look!

I have developed a similar rattle, but have not traced it down yet. In addition to what CMil suggests also check rear headliner vents and around the rear comfort control.

Also check the washer fluid hose. It may rattle against the hood hinge. Some guys taped it to the hinge. I used a zip tie.

there is a tech bulletin about hood hinge bolt -- seem to remember threads about it somewhere
I had a mouse-squeak drivers side -- as if coming from behind dash etc -- dealer fixed in less than 30mins

Default Found the rattle surce

After almost 8 months I finally figured it out (at least on my 2013 Dodge Durango Crew) the source of the rattle. It was coming from the e-brake pedal. Whenever there is an uneven surface or during an acceleration rattle will develop and once I push the e-brake pedal "sideways towards left" without pushing it down of course, then the rattle will stop. I suspect there is a loose hardware somewhere. I haven't taken it to the dealer yet since the answer will be "can not duplicate". So I will take a look at it myself to see if I can remedy the problem. I will post my findings.

I too have a mouse-squeak like sound coming from behind the dash. Is this because of the hood hinge bolt bulletin?
