I have a suggestion it might help, try to remove the retainer piece from the glove box and see
Mine is rock-solid and has no wiggle/slop to it. I did try removing it just in case, and no difference was made. I think maybe it's the door I'm hearing.
I have and for some reason when the tech is in the passenger seat the sound is barely there which makes me sound insane lol.
I am going to get someone to drive it and myself sitting at the rear to try to isolate the location.
The rattle could actually be coming from inside the passenger seat, I have one that comes when it's really cold from the passenger seat, never bothered to track down exactly from where because it sounds like it's literally inside the seat itself and doesn't even happen that often

It could be the mounting of the seat to the tracks itself, or possibly the seat back has something coming loose that won't be apparent if someone is sitting in it
The first time I went to the dealer, the tech did a test drive with me. I was on the passenger seat and it was DEAD SILENT. The day I got my car back, the sound came back, even though the report said it was fixed and I should never hear it again.
Maybe it IS in the seat then.
This is going to sound weird but I found a very noisy gel pen in my glovebox. If i shake the pen the end cap almost makes the same noise as the rattle. It's a soft noise and amazing how it could echo so much while driving in the car, but who knows, road vibrations can do amazingly strong things. Anyways, I tucked the pen under my butt for the whole ride home and I didn't hear the same rattle. I heard a few other small rattles but not the prominent one. Now I really wonder if it was the pen. I've since removed the pen out of my car and will see how long this no-rattle lasts. Thank god for the 4 year warranty. This stuff takes time.
my guess is it could be the fans under the passenger seat because when I have someone sitting it no noise but when there's no one I can hear it rattling.
