Anybody notice rattles and squeaks coming from interior trim panels and such? Michigan roads suck, but I didn't expect to be getting all that much noise this early in the game... What has been your experience?
99% of the time when I investige rattles in my car its something I added. Water bottle in door pocket, something in trunk, ect. I did have a huge rattle near shifter on a rough section of road in Texas, but have not had that happen again in over 30K miles.
My CRUZE puts on a virtual concert of pops & clicks. I look at this thing as a Toy Car. I do not like popping from the struts/shocks or the corners of the CRUZE. I asked the Dealer and they were not aware of any popping issues. Of course that is why they replaced my rear trailing axle at 800 miles?
I understand that you are experiencing some unexpected noises in your Cruze. I will like to take a further look into this concern for you. Feel free to send us a private message in reference to this thread with your full contact information, VIN, current mileage, and dealership name if we can be of any extra assistance. I look forward to helping!
The piece that sits on top of my instrument cluster vibrates against the instrument cluster itself like 70% of the time. It's driving me nuts. I'm thinking about getting like one of those sliders for chair legs on wood floors and cutting it into a small 1" by 1" square and shoving it between the two pieces. I have a feeling the dealership won't fix a rattle under warranty. Lol.

It's really not horrible. However, if it's the plastic clips coming loose and rubbing I don't think that's right. And it's really only over the jarring bumps.
My speaker ring seems to be the only thing that rattles thus far, 2 years and 30k on her. Just snapped it back on. Definitely impressed with the interior build quality.
I forgot to mention both my front seats will creak and groan at times when cornering, pretty sad considering no super fat people have been in my car and other cars I have had seats were quiet past past 100-200K.
This is especially true for the power drivers seat which usually happens after I move the seat & will take quite a few miles to find that quiet sweet spot.
lol I have some but just stoped searching for them, after my wind noise problem fixed partialy by the dealer the little rattles are not so bad trust me. What I do...pump up the volume and forget about them. You fix one rattle and next thing you notice you here something else comming from I don't know where. It's not the cruze, my past 4 new cars rattled from the first month, our roads are in very bad shape so I assume it's not helping very much.
yep i still have the rattle coming from the blower. dealer cant replicate the issue and find the actuator that is making this noise. Told me to bring it in when it does well the problem it happens when im on the road and no where near the dealership.
Check your cabin air filter behind the glove box. Last fall I changed mine out at 35K miles and it was 75% blocked with dead leaves. I did reach in with my hand and vac & pull out leaves from under the cabin air filter too.
Yesterday I decided to check it since for the last 6 months I had a constant ticking sound with the blower on 1-2 but not higher settings. Sure enough there was a small handful of leaves with one large one rattling under the cabin air filter.
It almost seems leaves are able to get sucked past the cabin air filter along the front edge between the filter and cover you open, as I found leaves both times as soon as I open the cover. Maybe a thin piece of foam is in order to better seal this area.
I got this annoying rattle coming from the passenger shoulder belt height adjustment. It goes away when I lower the shoulder belt but then it's not the correct position for optimum safety for my wife.
We can certainly understand how frustrating this rattling noise must be, Aerogeek. If needed, we'd be happy to contact your dealership and speak with them about your concern. Feel free to send us a private message with your full contact information, VIN, current mileage, and dealership name for further assistance. We look forward to helping with this!
The only one I get that I notice and annoys the snot out of me is coming from the driver's door panel somewhere near the back by the seatbelt.
Drives me crazy because I can hear it in my left ear.
I'm about 3 thousand miles away from being out of B2B warranty. I can't decide if I want to take it in for this as once panels get pulled, it usually on tends to make matters worse from my experience.
I have no muffler on my dodge w/a cummins,5" pipe straight out the back.I have to turn the radio up loud enough for the car next to me to hear it and you guys are crying about rattles give me a brake.These are assembly line cars probally built in a couple of hours be happy there as good as they are for how much they costJust think you could spent 80-250,000 on a vehicle and have the same **** noises.Myaybe you could all just listen to the passenger ***** about something and then you wouldn't notice the little rattles that are annoying
