Rattle and squeak in A pillar
We're getting a rattle and squeak in the A pillar in the drivers side of out 2014 GL 350. I cannot find the source. Anyone else?
(The A pillar is the "bar" from the bottom of the windshield to the top.)

Is it possibly coming from the door weatherstripping? Mine and some other X166s have found the front door weatherstripping can start making noises, particularly when the vehicle frame is stressed a bit. I found driving just one of my front wheels up onto a sloped curb would cause the car frame to stress/twist a bit and cause noises.

I did have a rattle but mine was a little higher up so where the handlebar would be above and to the side of your head. I took it in and they couldn't find anything. Took it in again for another round months later and they ended up taking the headliner off and found that something wasn't completely screwed in. Solved the problem.
