A rattle from inside the steering wheel

I have an annoying rattle that is from inside my steering wheel; airbag maybe? I took it to the dealer (Acura of Valley Stream) and the dealer told me the rattle (which he at least acknowledged existed and said that if it was his car it would annoy him too) can't be fixed because it has something to do with the airbag and he can't replace a $1400 part just for a rattle. Is that accurate? Should I go back and complain?
