Try your dealer if youre still under warranty.

Typically, some 7thgenners complain about a slight rattle below the glove box...

I've got a similar problem, only mine rattles only after I've run the A/C for a bit. It's like something only makes contact when it gets cold and contracts. Turning off the A/C and letting the dash warms up takes care of the problem, but on the recent 90 degree days I've just been using the radio to try and cover it up.

There's been a thread about this before. The gist being our interiors are pretty cheap. Learn to live with it or be prepared to die from aggravation. You're not going to be able to get rid of every rattle and squeak.

My friend who bought an 03 accord V6 had some rattles and brought it to the dealer. The service guy told him if he wanted a car with no squeaks and rattle, he should've gotten an Acura.

Acura's will still have some rattles in first year production cars. Examples: TSX, RSX, new TL I believe had some complaints about rattling.
