I think the only mainstream cars that don't do this are Mercedes-Benz. And maybe the LS. For all other cars, I think this is something we all have to accept because it's tough to hold such a thin piece of glass so rigidly from just 3 sides.

If you want to hear rattling, shut the door on an Infiniti G35 Coupe with frameless glass. Window up, down, middle - doesn't matter.

Stealer is lying, take it to another for a warranty situation.

----> Stealer!

Yeah, I agree. Dealers don't like messing around with rattles, so they try to send you back on your way.
