The bolster under the steering comes out with a couple screws. Take it out and have a look. Betcha anything there's a tracking device or some add-on antitheft device that was poorly installing at the dealership.

I had the same problem, took alot of troubleshooting. Look at the picture, the panel that goes over the shifter needs some tension. I applied foam tape about 1" thick to the underside of the shifter and then squeezed the panel back on when the shifter was put back. No more noise!

Also when driving test it first, apply alot of pressure to the panel directly under the shifter in an upward force.

Thought that happened to me. Had a rattle in dash. It turned out to be the visor wasn't seated in the catch on the roof. I popped it in and the rattle went away.

I had a knocking noise that I thought was coming from the dash. It turned out to be the passenger side seatbelt latch knocking against the center console.

You are not even going to believe this, but that's what it was . The visor was out of its catch. Popped it in, no more knocking !!
