Default Speaker Rattle while on Phone

Has anyone else experienced speaker rattle from the dashboard while talking on a phone call?

Yes, very annoying. If you just place your hand on the speaker grille, it's stops. I have a similar rattle in the left A-pillar speak grille while playing music.

I don't notice a rattle but I do hear some slight speaker distortion when the voice call volume is turned up too high. No rattles or distortion whatsoever with music streaming via bluetooth though, even at loud volumes. I have the Bose 3D.

Those experiencing this rattle, which audio system do you have? base, Bose, or B&O?

Same here, annoying is the most polite word I can use to describe it...

Bose - and it's not the speaker for me, it's the grille. If I just place my hand on the grille, it's stops (both the center and a-pillar issues). No speaker distortion at all - I've been very pleased and impressed by the Bose)

Agree. It is clearly a speaker distortion, when you decrease the volume the distortion stops.

Took mine into the dealer and have them replaced. The distortion is gone now. It was a pain though because they were reluctant to replace it for me since it doesn't happen in high Bass, it happens only in certain song.
