    Get some weatherstriping material that is usually used on the front door of a house. It has solved the problem for me.

    Yeah, I am going to do that too. I went to the dealership twice, they even changed out the glove box..... to no avail. I was stuffing my sweater inside, but I am going to take your advice and get that weather stripping....

    Haven't done it yet, but I like the idea of the sticky and heavy viscosity grease at the joints might do the trick or at least reduce that lousy rattle. Food for thought.

    mine had that squeaky/rattling thing. I pulled the glovebox up on right side which kinda popped up then pushed it back in and, at least for now, stopped all the noise.
