3 Structure problem of the 2005 Lexus RX330

Failure Date: 02/05/2009

Certified Lexus RX 330 developed two separate dash noises within one week after purchase. One of these noise is coming from below the center of the front defrost vent and sounds like a piece of plastic is popping in and out of place. This only occurs when its really cold (below 20 degrees). The other noise is constant and occurs whenever going over a bump. It's coming from the passenger side of the dash by the speaker cover. It sounds like a piece of plastic "clicking" together and is very annoying. The dealer says that the certified warranty does not cover "interior noises". A certified Lexus should not have rattles and noises.
