Rattles and creaks

I know there are some rattle posts out there but couldn’t find one specific for the GT’s. I have a 2016 gts with just over 2500 miles. There is an obvious rattle, buzz, noise coming from driver door that amplify’s the rougher the road. Rattle #2 appears to come from the rear passenger plastic strut cover. It basically is behind passengers head rest next to the rear window. Annoying for passenger. #3 is the passenger seat where the thigh bolsters up on the door side of the seat. Simply touching it makes it sound like a rocking chair noise. Maybe some fat *** was a passenger and dislodged something but it doesn’t look broken. Anyone else have such an experience? I hate to have my car taken apart, Because I just don’t trust the way it will go back together. Any advice is appreciated.

I had a few rattles which I eventually managed to fix myself. There are pics in the thread which will help you to remove trim sections from at least some of the areas you mention (I think!).

I had a driver's seat rattle. The dealership fixed it, but damaged my paint and installedt the steering wheel on off center. The seat is fixed. Dealer paid for some paint work

I've got rattles and creaks in the center console of my GTR, just haven't had time to take it in and get it looked at. Symptom of sitting at the VPC in the sun for 6+ months I think.
