Sequence 20A Undercarriage rattle

I have a 2021 Thor Sequence 20A with just over 1k miles on it. When driving at about 45mph, there's a rattle from under the vehicle just behind the driver's seat. It sounds like a heat shield is loose and hitting something; however, I can't find anything that can make the noise. I've crawled under the vehicle and found some bolts rubbing on the exhaust. I trimmed them up, but still have the rattle.

Has anyone else experienced this rattle? Not sure if I'm looking at the right spot to fix this problem.

I appreciate any advice.

Thanks

Forrest

I had the exact same issue and it was a heat shield. I can not remember exactly what it was shielding but it was a small heat shield (about 10 inches long and 6 inches high) connected to a couple other small heat shields (almost forming a small box). It was behind the passenger door/wheel in a couple of feet. This heat shield would rattle at speeds as they are not secured very well. If I remember right they are "tabbed" together.
Sorry I can not be of more help as I no longer have the Tellaro ... Hope this helps

Thank you for the info. I'm going to crawl under there tomorrow, check out the passenger-side and see if that's the issue.

This issue ended up being the heat shield above the LP tank. There were several areas where self tapping screws should have been installed. Installed so self-tapping screws and I'm enjoying the quiet ride.
