Aren’t rattles covered under warranty? I haven’t had any annoying rattles, but I had them in my Mercedes. At 30,000 miles, the dealer replaced half of my center console before realizing it was the center cupholder. If it bothers you, maybe have the dealer fix it?
Yes but did you read my post?

I know what you are saying...Mine is in today for the sunroof rattle and I am horrified that it will be twice as bad after the fact...or damage somewhere from taking something apart....but I had to do something, it was driving me nuts!!

I have zero tolerances for rattles or squeaks, they drive me insane. Had my truck detailed in March and came back now squeaky on the drivers door handle where my knee rests while driving. Havent figured out how to get rid of it yet.

Had a bad rattle in a Datsun King Cab. Dealer tore it apart. Couldn’t find it. Come to find that one of the clamps that hold my brain [emoji3447] together came lose. Ya never know.

I have a rattle in my driver’s side window. Only have 1200 miles

My last two trucks (Toyota) were rattle free. One was 10 years old with 160k. They were also about as exciting to drive as a minivan.

I just turn the radio up and floor it.
I have the same rattle in my 2018. Just do the same thing lol.

Reminds me - I have a rattle in my screw f150, again, from somewhere else; that I need to take to the dealer. I've had a few rattles dealer has fixed. ****** me off I buy a Platinum truck and there are rattles.

YET - I was in a wreck that was not my fault and rattles started after that; frame was replaced.

My moon roof was rattling and dealer added flock seal in between bottom of moon roof and on mechanism moon roof slides on; hasn't rattled since.

Same here. Seems like I read that you can "foam" the handle and it helps. Passenger door is fine.

Same rattle same spot for me, Supercab. Taking it in for first service if I have any luck I will pass it on. Also getting drivers seat bottom looked at, excessive wrinkles in leather.
