Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Once in a while from the dome light. Press the housing and the rattle will go away. Need to get it fixed one day, but since it does it rarely it doesn’t bother me too much.

My wife noticed a rattle from the 2nd row climate cluster in the ceiling.
I have a similar rattle in this area that comes and goes.

yes, I meant this location. I guess there are two “dome” lights.
I guess it
I guess it may be a design issue since it looks like a common area for rattles. I haven’t looked in details, but it feels like the climate control assembly just clips onto the headliner, without any fasteners, since it is “loose” when you press it to stop the rattle.

Yes. There is a squeak coming from the passenger side. I think it is in the back seat but it could be near the seatbelt in the front passenger seat. My car isn't even a month old!
No, but there is a faint wind noise at the driver’s window. Tech says, "I don’t hear it!” Typical. Squeaks and rattles? No.
Over time, every vehicle will develop some squeaks and rattles. Some vehicles sooner than others. (yep, super frustrating) Think of all the parts of a vehicle and all the potential areas that could squeak or rattle. If you want to avoid such noises as much as possible, invest in a Bentley for 250K. (so i hear)

Telluride—Proving u can’t always get what you want
A long time ago I knew a guy who bought a used car and spent a whole day tightening every nut and bolt he could find to get rid of all the squeaks and rattles. Of course this was when cars were actually built with mostly nuts and bolts. These days, you would probably have to replace a 1,000 plastic clips to get the same results!

Others are having this problem and so am I. This is no "normal" squeak and it's really annoying. Will be taking it back for the 3rd time this week. Mine started after owning it 2 days. Had the second row light fixture rattle too but they fixed that. Dealer said they'd replace the offending 2nd row captain's chair, if necessary. Good luck...
I have the same issue likely from a seat and taken it to the dealership a few times now. No resolution so far. Very annoying to say the least.

How was the dome light rattling fixed? I’d prefer to do it myself …

Guys I have had my Telluride for a week and I used to get a rattle from the headliner and i pinpointed it to the area right behind the front sunroof and second panorama roof. If I just tapped in that area I could hear the rattle. I realize the headliner is held with clips and I felt that it was just not tucked in. I just used a muscle and pressured it and felt a snap and it felt like it fell into place. This has now addressed the noise issue. We shall see if it lasts.
Where exactly did you press to get that snap? The rattle comes from the center dome for me.
