Rattle coming from passenger door maybe pillar between front and rear door

[Yeti]

Took the stinger, 2019 AWD GTS, to Vegas for 4 days. There is a rattle coming from either the passenger front door or the pillar, passenger side between the front and rear door. Happens at high speed. Do not hear it when I slow down. Anyone have any ideas?

Well obviously you check the seat belt first and make sure it isn't a rattler.

After that you check the grab handle and maybe do the felt tape padding trick or something similar.

Push up on the ceiling liner, hard. Something inside might snap tighter into place.

And lastly, or firstly, go down the entire length of your rocker panels and push up hard on all the fastening points. Loose rocker panels have been known to resonate into the cabin as door or pillar noise, or sound like that anyway.

Turn your stereo up louder.

check the b-pillar trim, as well. i've had to pop that one back in.

Thank you for the replies. Checked the pillar trim and rocker panels. Did not see or feel anything.

Left a mechanic stethoscope in the car. Next road trip I will have Karen drive and see if I can locate the source

So . . . I have this on my GT2 2022.

Mine is Driver side, but its like a rattle or something like that.

Only happens at freeway speeds.

I'm going to be checking everything lited, but if not that . . . are the door cards on these cars hard to take apart? Any guides or whatnot?

Figure its probably just a metal rod or hanger tapping glass or metal. Shouldn't be to hard to figure out with the door card off.

Easy peasy, says the guy. Looks easy peasy to me. Hope I never have a reason to do it though. Ha hah.

In the winter I get salt stuck in the brake vents. Worth blasting out with a pressure washer in case there's a rock stuck in there.

Did you put screens in there like a lot of owners do? I've left mine open and have never seen any indication of "rash" from flying debris exiting the vents. But screening them would definitely "help" the accumulation of frozen salty grime. I've never experienced blocked, frozen vents either, and each time I use the pressurized wand I spray those vents out from both ends.
