I've had this rattle on the driver side for some time now, especially when going over less than fresh, perfectly paved, roads. The sound goes away when I put a finger on the Acura badge located center steering wheel.

Any ideas on how to tighten it or fix it? I don't even know how the badge is attached... seems to skinny for screws. and it's an airbag... and costs $600 to buy a new one, which is probably a little outlandish for fixing a rattle.

 

Pretty sure that's all sonically or thermally welded together (badge to cover and cover in assembly).

 

Maybe I should just try tightening the module then...

 

Shrapnel from the Takata airbag rattling around in there?

 

Could be :P
