Hey there, long shot but I have a rattle noise that sounds like it is coming from the drivers side door/a pillar/front dash corner area. It started a week or 2 ago and I cant track it down. I am going to work on narrowing it down by riding wo door, roof panel, etc to try to track it down but was curious if anyone as had the same?

Thanks
Daniel

Not sure if this is what your hearing but I’ve noticed that when the rear seat belts are left loose, they rattle against the trim in the rear. I tucked the straps into the slots on the side molding and the rattle stopped. The slots are intended to hold the belts out of the way when you lower the seat backs. Hope this helps.

My gladiator is absolutely riddled with rattles. something new in the passenger door is affected by vehicle speed. I am going to have to gut the interior and spray the whole thing down.

Let me know what you find in the door. I was debating on taking my door off to see if noise stops to isolate it

the sound bar rattles when midbass is strong, releasing the inside rear latch on the drivers top stops the rattle.

Unfortunately, I wont find much because I wont be looking. Ill just be soaking everything with deadener.

I am looking because it sounds like it could be in dash area too and just am not sure

The sounds I am talking about are not caused by bass/stereo

Mine sounded like a piece of metal had slid down between the windshield and dash on the driver side...

Looked at the service bulletin and found that the drivers and passenger side sun visors need tightened...

Thought to myself that sounds hinky but tightened them (they were slightly loose) now no more noise...

Good call on sun visors...I found that lots of my bolts where on the loose side.

Are the service bulletins available anywhere online?
