That's just the car reminding you it's a Mitsubishi

I have plenty of rattles in the dashboard, shifter, glove box, etc. Try to find out exactly where the rattle is coming from and you can probably put some kind of padding in the dash to stop the vibrations.

There were a lot of complaints about the glove box squeaking-sounds just like a deep internal dash squeak. All I do on mine is just touch the corner of the glove box door and it stops.

Imagine what mines like I have urethane motor mounts... My car sounds like its going to fall apart at idle with the AC on. It feels like a lazy boy with a massage option.

I have the same issue. Mine is the small square close to the windshield between the defrosters. It's so annoying on gravel!
