I have a 11 GS Vert. At about 3500 miles it developed a terrible squeak in the drivers door and window. It took 2 weeks for the dealer to get it resolved. They finally replaced all the window and door seals. Now it only squeaks on a really rough road. It has however developed some rattles in the dash.

I could possibly have a rattle or two I suppose, but if I do I don't hear it because I keep the NPP open and I crank the Bose up loud!

2006 with 45K . The only rattles were from the roof. Used all the fixes, and all is quiet on all front. back and top
The e-clip was the best fix of all, along with di-electic grease for the contact points.

When I am on a rough road there is a rattle where the column meets the the dash.

I have a 2012 GS white rag-top. At about 60 mph the roof (I believe) starts to vibrate something terrible and a frequency around 100 Hz. It is worse if there is a head wind or cross wind. At times it is deafening. The car started this at under 1000 miles. Anyone know what it is and how it can be stopped? Will my local GM dealer know, or am I on my own?
