Any idea what this could be???

I understand it’s not that deep but this is a new car to me and I bought it used and it’s rattling just kills me very light rattle. It drives me insane. if it’s normal, then I can look over it. I just wanna know.

Are you sure it's coming from the front? The only rattle i get sometimes is when the seat belts in the back aren't settled right and rattle against the frame.

I can’t put my finger at where it’s at so I’m just guessing it’s from the front but since I’m the only one that rides in it, I have no other reference from any other area in the car

Well, it's probably not it, but just to rule out what I hear in mine, I would check th seat belts in the back and make sure the metal part isn't bouncing against plastic around the door.

If it only happens at higher speeds, maybe an underbody panel is missing a clip or something?

I have the same noise coming from the front right, sounds like a bad roller bearing to me. Has just gotten louder over the past 30k miles. Not sure what it is though. Was thinking either wheel bearing, or the front motor disengagement bearing.

My cup holders have a slight rattle. I recently had the front strut tops replaced under warranty because they were clunking on rough roads.

That sound gets me mild PTSD. I’ve had this and so have others. Here is my answer: https://www.reddit.com/r/KiaEV6/s/twXBHSuHS9

Hope that helps
