Interior Noise

2010 - I have a noise that sounds like something is rubbing or loose, either under the center of the dash by the windshield or under the glove box. I can't pin point where it is exactly but it's driving me nuts. It started a few months ago. Now, the only way to reproduce the sound is to drive car over 50-mph. It NEVER makes the sound under 50. Strange right? It sounds almost like what a tree branch with dead leaves on it would sound like if rubbing it on a piece of plastic. Some days it's louder than others but it's there everyday to some extent. Bumps have no effect on reproducing the sound, only when driving over 50.

It sounds almost identical to this video.
Listen between 4:16 and the 4:22 mark. That is exactly what i'm hearing.

Checked it.

No sir. Already check that. Twice.... There has got to be an answer to this. It's sucks because I am looking to trade the car because of the noise. Crazy how one thing can make you dislike something so much.


I know the drill if I take it to the dealer... Either the car won't make the noise and if it does I'll get the run around... Hopefully someone reads this that had the same issue and was able to resolve it.
