Headliner/Moonroof rattle (Video)

I purchased a new RX 450h+ and I got it delivered a month ago, this is my first Lexus ever.
During my purchase, I added an option for a front and rear dashcam, installed by a third party that is working for the dealer, so it is also under warranty.
For some reason, I have a rattling noise from the headliner/moonroof, which is most apparent when I open the curtain.
I've got the car checked twice already and I still hear the rattles, however, since the last check, the rattling decreased a bit, while still very apparent and annoying.
So, now I'm a bit frustrated and would like to verify with other owners if they also have the same issue
I've attached a video for reference, it most noticeable at the 25th second

- The first time I got it checked by the dealer who pointed out that it was from the dashcam installation, and once the third-party company checked it, they said that it is not related to the dashcam, but rather something with the rails.
- Then, as the issue persisted, the dealer checked it again and tried to fix it themselves, they had the car for 3 days, and now after getting it back from them, the issue is still not fixed.

You must have a gen 4 RX since the RX450h+ isn’t available as a 2023 model in the US. You might want to post there instead of gen 5. Either that or you don’t own a RX450h+.

I saw the location as Illinois when I saw IL. Apologies.

They must have removed the headliner in order to install a rear facing camera.
Anytime someone takes the panels off, there is a good chance things will not go back the same way; specially a 3rd party.
I would work with the lexus dealer to get it fixed. There should not be any rattle in this car, period!
