All New 2017 Mazda 3

[jojopad]

I have this new rattling noise coming from the glove compartment. We just noticed this when driving on uneven road. At first it sounded like a rattling spring. The noise stopped after my wife gave a little push to the compartment. The only stuff inside the glove compartment is the M3 user manual.

Anybody here encountered this noise too?

Had a similar thing, but not on the 3. I simply checked where the rub was & got a coupla cabinet door bumpers to shut the buzzing up. They're available in pads. Check your local hardware shop.

Or try felt strips...

Thanks! I'll try out the door bumpers.

Those automotive wiring harness is something I need to minimize the faint noise coming from the dashcam powercable that I placed inside the ceiling. Thanks too for that!

Not sure if you've seen or read this, guys: Kobe Steel CEO announces resignation over quality scandal

For those who aren't aware:

The scandal encompassing aluminum, copper, steel and other products affected some of Japan's biggest manufacturers, including automakers Toyota Motor, Honda Motor and Mazda Motor, as well as bullet train operators JR Tokai and JR West.

But so far...

Toyota, Mazda and Honda later said the suspect Kobe Steel materials met their internal safety standards.

What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?

For as long as they met the safety standards of the production of the vehicles, should be no cause of concern.
