I believe you have the same issue that I and others have had. Something to do with insulating tape and clips used during assembly. Your dash will be removed and re-sealed, etc.

I did get a loaner. Took 3 days. If you have the same issue. It was an intermittent ticking/tapping sound which had the cadence of a crack smoking monkey doing morse code. It drove us crazy. I went to great lengths to record the sound on video tape while I drove to make sure my dealer heard it.

So far so good.
