No. 2 rattle is somewhere behind the glove box, again usually when cold. I have Rattle no. 3 behind the light switch/dial, and lastly, the suspension squeeks. OK, now I know I am a bit anal and want my truck tight and quiet since it is brand new, BUT, is this normal, anyone else experience this? I hate to take it to the dealer and have them rip down the head liner and dashboard, then for sure it wont be right. PLEASE HELP ! Tony

i have the same problems with my 08. crazy rattles are coming from the back of mine. i think its the spare rattling. i brought it to the dealer and they said it was the exhaust. they put new parts on and i still have the loud rattling.

Re: PLEASE HELP, Rattles ugh !!!
hey man thanks for the input. yeah that "loose exhaust" excuse is lame. I do hear the spare mount rattle over serious bumps, but thats not it. I actually had my girl drive me around and sat in the back seat to listen. Its directly above the backrest of the back seat, and it rattles, loud. i thought at first it was some cables or wires hanging down but it just seems too loud. I am wondering if there is a cross member right there and the tack weld broke loose. But I have had dealers in the past tear down the headliners and dashboards, and things are just NEVER right after that.

I have the one behind the glove compartment when it is cool.
Haven't taken it in yet.

35K on mine before it started. Took it in to the dealer and everything was fine for one day, then it started back up just like before.
Funny thing, the loaner with 3K already had EXACTLY the same rattle!
A guy that I work with has the same rattle. 
Seeing this many occurrences, you can't tell me that GM doesn't know about the problem and know what the solution is.
