Rattle Near Front Side Curtain Airbag

tim711 · 06-21-2006, 11:18 PM

Seems like at slow speeds I can hear two rattles near the top and bottom of the driver's front side airbag (along the windshield post). Wondering if anyone else is also experiencing slight rattles as you go over small bumps or unlevel roads?

Yea Rattling Has been a big issue with the new civic's. You should try to ask the dealership to check out the problem.

I have a rattle in the morning when the car is still cold. COmes from either passenger dash or passenger A pillar area. Hard to tell.

Maybe the defective hydrolic engine mount we have out in Asia. It's a known problem, but no fix as yet.

I found one that seems to be coming from the sunvisor cover. When open it's over the back seat.

I have a rattle in my passenger seat, and it seems like two rattles coming from the rear window area (the pillars?) on my 06 Si.

I have that same rattle but its just on the top of that pillar that holds the windshield. It's right at the top where the plastic meets the fabric. I found that if I push on the fabric, the rattle goes away. I am dropping my car off at the dealership on my way to work tomorrow. My local Honda dealership is across the street from where I work. I didn't buy my car there cuz they wanted $3500 over MSRP, but they have a really good shop. My Honda dealer told me to take my car to this Honda dealer because they have really good mechanics. Go figure. Also, my dealer is like 20-30mins away though. I wouldn't drive out there anyways.

Wow rattles everywhere. Does the warranty cover this?

Um, it's broke. I've got rattles in the right front corner dash/A-pillar junction and somewhere around the shifter. 3 days ago my seat started squeaking when I push the clutch in. I'm headed to the dealer tomorrow to be told they can't hear it and they all do that. I'm starting to worry about this car.

Did you get this resolved at the dealer? I have the same problem, and it drives me nuts. I would rather try to fix it myself than let the dealer butchers at my car.

I had rattles in the roof liner aft of the sunroof. I ended up applying pressure to roof liner in an effort to find the spot and in doing so, seemed to have fixed it. I'm not sure if maybe the glue or whatever didn't set, but the thing is completely quite now ... go figure.
