Warranty time. Let us know how it turns out

So much for Japanese build quality. Mutiple review cars had all sorts of rattles from the screen and squeaking seats. I chucked it to being preproduction.

I'm coming from an FK8. Hard to get worse than that. You're under warranty, take it in

That bad? That would drive me crazy.

Glove box should be an easy fix. Seats are specific to that model but everything is under warranty so don't accept less than satisfactory, you paid for it.

Ok so I’ve had my car for a couple of weeks now and I have to say 2 things are driving me crazy right now. 1. The glove box constantly rattles / creaks, etc. 2. My drivers seat is squeaking some too. It’s like whatever plastic they used is super noisy. Anyone else notice this? My 2020 sport hatch had neither of these issues. It’s starting to make me question the build quality.

I'm having a similar issue with mine. Sound comes from the right while I drive and when I let my dad drive for a bit I hear it from the left so it's a center issue on the plastic or something that's rattling. Having mine looked at the day I get the ceramic on the 23rd. Hope your issue gets fixed as well.

Zero issues after 2 weeks and 500 miles which included some very aggressive driving. Car is immaculate.

Zero noise issues from the seat or glove box with mine had the car for over a week and 600 miles on the car. Take it to the dealer and have them have a look at it

damn, that's super unfortunate. at 1300 miles now, interior noise i hear is mild vibration in the dash as i accelerate, but nothing major to complain about

First production run always going to be the buggiest. Take it to the dealer.

This is exactly why I always abstain from first year production models. Bugs, issues, recalls, etc. it’s inevitable, even on a Civic.

I get you just paid a pretty hefty chunk of change for your car but a lot of this is simply stemming from the first cars that roll off the line. Depending on the type of noise and volume, much of this is simply solved with low friction tape. The seat itself is probably not built by Honda and is just yet another supplier. Just hope it's not the level of failure like Takata. But overall if that's the only two problems with the car, heck of a lot better than a lot of other recent roll outs. Would you rather have the Hyundai engine recall issue, KIA USB defeat or the BRZ/GR86 engine clogging issue among a plethora of other issues other cars have had on launch? Get annoyed if Honda's support network can't fix the issue.

It’s pretty bad. I don’t even want to drive it.

I'll stay on top of this and report anything I hear or find...but 400 miles in, no strange noise...

Our '12 Si had a similar rattle - took it to dealer and they found extra front license plate screws in the glove box!
