Rattling around touchscreen area

[Adamrx11]

Took my 24 vert GT on a road trip and there were a few hundred miles of very bad and bouncy highway. Now I've noticed a rattling sound that definitely wasn't there before, around the touchscreen area. I searched this forum but couldn't find anything. Has anyone had this happen or know where the issue may be? Luckily I have a service appt but I'm trying to figure out the issue now so that they can actually do something about it when they have it. Any help is very appreciated!

I do sometimes hear a rattle on the left hand side of the touchscreen by the steering wheel. If I press down on the screen, the rattle goes away. It doesn't happen enough where I have felt to make an appointment, but its definitely not down tight as it should be. Let me know how it goes.

I just got this response from someone on reddit:

Fake carbon fiber trimbehind the screen is kind of rattly. Dealer found a loose clip behind the instrument panel which they corrected and also installed since felt tape on the edges

I have the same issue!!!

It rarely rattles but when it does, it does!
I agree, a slight pull on the upper left of the driver's screen and it stops.
Let it go and it resumes.

Mine is at Ford for the second warranty fix on this issue.
The first attempt reduced when it rattles, but it still does now and then.
I hope they can find a fix this time.

In the same area of the dash, when I slow to a stop to turn left or right, I get a single medium loud metallic click. Not the biggest deal in the world but it shouldn't do that and it is annoying.
