RHO at dealer/dash rattle

[Westsoccer18]

my truck has a rattle going over every bump or uneven road surface. It sounds like it’s coming from the HUD area. Has anyone heard or experienced this? I figured I’d put it out there and get feedback before having to take it to the dealer and they inevitably rip apart the dashboard on a new truck.

Have not heard or seen this on the forum here - maybe you could get a passenger to help push on parts of the dash while you are driving - see if you can pinpoint the rattle .... hope its only a loose screw or something that can easily be shimmed. Been driving in zero degree temps with cold plastic that likes to creak and moan until it warms up - and no rattles and noises for me.

Someone probably just forgot their wrench under your dash

Jk

It’s definitely coming from the hud area. If I press down on that trim piece, it does quiet down a little bit. I’ve taken the center screen, digital odometer, and all trim pieces off to see if I see anything. And I still can’t pinpoint it.

It is really bad when it happens on a plane.

I don't have a dash rattle but my driver side door panel rattles....I've also found another issue. My driver side fender is misaligned. Seems like all my issues are on the driver side so far.

Shiit, bet that surgeon wasn’t happy.

I had a bad rattle with certain RPMs. Took it in and they found a small metal bracket sitting on the exhaust manifold up by the firewall…They said it did not go to anything under the hood and that it looked like a rear seat bracket, but nothing was missing that they could see. No more rattle
