Long story short: noticed an annoying vibration coming from the front dash area that exists when I am accelerating at slow speeds. When I take my foot off the gas, it stops intermittently and returns when I accelerate. Not sure if this is par for the course but I certainly don’t recall it during my test drive.

Also, I discovered the soft cover on top of the battery was all chewed up and scratched, followed by mouse droppings over the dash one more. I laid a trap and caught the mouse. Not sure if the vibration/buzzing is related but could be. Trying to avoid removing my dash to find a nest But also want the buzzing gone/ensure the mouse didn’t ruin anything.

Here’s the video, headphones are probably needed to hear it well. Thanks all for helping to troubleshoot this!

That's what the radio is for. Turn it up so you don't hear it.

Speaking of not hearing it, I played that video clip at least 5-6 times with the volume all the way up wearing headphones and didn't hear anything unusual.
