Question Lots of Give in Dash by right front speaker grill??

I've had a bit of a (non) problem come up with my "C". Up by the right front speaker grill on top of the dash I have lots of give. The problem is when the weather fluctuates from hot/cool (humid/dry) the give is much more/less. Depending on the temperature the give is more or less. When the give is more I get a bit of an annoying noise like plastic settling when or clicking when I go over bumps or even drive on a rough pavement. The give does not exist on the drivers side at all. Now I know plastic will expand and change due to temperature changes but the noise is quite annoying and it doesn't happen all the time. I'm wondering if something is loose under the speaker or if the dash is not secured properly. Has anyone else noticed this? If you push down on the dash by your right front speaker grill on the dash do you guys get lots of give. Anyone know how to get under the speaker grill to see if something is loose? Any suggestions??

Thanks

Do a search on "dash" and you will find my earlier post on the issue. DC has fix for this problem now. The dealer places a channel bracket connecting the vent grill trim to the dash where the two meet. This way, the dash does not drop below the vent grill trim.

Does a TSB exist on this problem? Does anyone have it or can you tell me where I could possibly look it up. Has anyone had the bracket/clips installed. I checked the earlier thread and no report existed after the work had been completed

Thanks
