I had an obnoxious rattle on the top of my R1S dashboard. It only occured when the dash was hot from the sun and on rough roads. I reached out to Rivian who gave me a couple of fix ideas to try out but no luck. Then I noticed the rattle stopped if I pushed down on the grille where the grille and the leather dash meet.
I purchased 5.00 mm black rubber hose from Amazon ( I think it is actually advertised as a fix for the Tesla sunroof wind noise). I ordered 2 sizes, I am pretty sure this is the one I used.
With the yellow tool that is included, I wedged the hose (patience, it is a tight fit) between the metal grille and the leather the full length of the dash. It is visibly unnoticable and worked perfectly. My guess is the grille expands and contracts with the weather just enough to rub and rattle.
