Dashboard / Steering Column Rattle

Dashboard / Steering Column Rattle
I’ve had my ‘22 MDX Advance for a couple weeks now and noticed a rattling noise coming from the steering column area on the dashboard when going over slight bumps in the road.
Took it into Acura of Brookfield who said the leather boot connecting the steering column to the dashboard was the cause of the noise & replaced it. This seemed to fix it temporarily.
Couple days later, I parked the car outside for an afternoon in 70 degree heat and the rattle returned.
I dropped the car back at the dealership and drove home a ‘22 MDX Tech which also had the steering column rattle (but much worse than mine; ~1200 miles on odometer).
Acura Brookfield service is saying they haven’t received any reports of this issue but as I noticed this on 2 separate vehicles am curious if others are experiencing this.

Sorry but it sounds like early initial quality issues from the first model year. I've got a rattle in my driver side door panel when I go over bumps in my '21 TLX.
I guess we have to expect this as early adopters.

I don't have rattling noise coming from the steering column, but I do have rattling from the front passenger area. Do you have any updates? My car is close to 3600 miles.

No big updates. The sound is really pronounced when the vehicle has been sitting in the sun for a bit on mild / warm days. Today was ~60 degrees and it sat in my driveway for about 2 hours - drove it on the freeway ~75 mph and the dash (to left hand side of steering wheel) and plastic trim surrounding the speedometer were making the most noise.
Ive also noticed a rattle / vibrating sound coming from the driver door by the handle / area adjacent to the dashboard.
That said, I haven’t noticed any sound coming from the passenger seat though.
