So far I have no rattles or buzzing at all, but I only have a little over 4k miles on the car. I have to admit that I would be very unhappy if my Lexus rattled like an old Ford.

I just started noticing noises too and my car's a year old. I noticed it before but it wasn't too bad so I'd just turn up music and ignore it. Now it's getting worse! lol
I never had this problem on any of my other Lexus'

This is fairly common on any car during winter. The plastics and vinyl become typically noisier.

Good idea - we had a car that had rattles within it's first year, took it to the dealer and they made other rattles come about - somehow and we never did get the original problem resolved... haha So, if it is minor, live with it!
