    Can someone tell me how to remove the dash pad? I have a terrible rattle under the pad. I would rather do the work myself rather than take the car to the dealer.

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    welcome to the forum.
    We need to know which car you are working with..If it is the G.T.500 and it has a dash rattle,there is a T.S.B. that works available from your Ford dealer.
    I have done a few with great results,and it should be done before you go any
    further.
    Hope this helps out.
    P.D. :thumbup:

    Patty,

    Sorry. It is a 2008 GT500. The noise appears to be coming from just above the passenger side airbag. Although I have descibed it as a rattle, the noise is more like two pieces of styrofoam rubbing together. Any information you can give on removing the the pad would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    Hi,
    The noise you are describing is sounding like the rub/flex which is from the base of the "A" pillar molding.I would contact your favorite dealer and let them fix it for you.Have them check oasis and see if this tsb applies to your car.If you have warranty it should not cost you anything.
    Keep us posted.
    P.D.
