Anyone Else Have This Rattle?

[2024Denali]

I have an annoying rattle coming from the glove box handle - anyone else getting it? Any good fixes?

Interior rattles can be tricky and fool you. When you may think it's coming from somewhere it's coming from another place. Check the sun visor to be sure it's clipped in.  If not it will hit the clip and rattle. You'll swear it's coming from the glove box. Also check the passenger seat belt buckle. It's notorious for hitting the pillar trim. Buckle it and test drive again.

I agree with both above statements. The seat buckle is notorious on GM vehicles to rattle. Just bought wife new Acadia. Rattled like crazy. Buckled 2nd and 3rd row seats belts and the Acadia is so quiet now. Amazing how they can cause so much noise just hanging and barley touching plastic pillars.

It’s notorious on may vehicles. I’ve had a Pathfinder, 3 Explorers, and a VW Atlas. All of them would do that with the passenger seatbelt buckle. Strangest one I couldn’t figure out for a bit was a golf ball my son left in the rear door pocket. LOL

I had an annoying tick that I swore was coming from inside the passenger door. After taking it apart and finding nothing I found it was the under dash liner push rivets under the glovebox that were not fully seated. Pushed them all the way in and the noise went away.

However if you know it’s the glovebox handle I’d just put some Velcro (fabric side) behind it.

I am watching this topic closely as well as now with the colder temps, am getting the rattle at the glove box when I go over rough roads.  To me it sounds like a wire connector bumping on the backside of the glove box.  When the cab warms up, the rattle almost goes away.  One other post mentioned going through the fuse panel and adding foam behind the wires and defroster duct.

Will be a project for this weekend if not too cold to work in the garage.

I hate rattles!

 

Update:

I think I found it!  It was the sunglass holder in the upper console.  I could have sworn it was in the dash.
