Angry Squeaking noise under dash

I have an intermittent squeaking noise that seems to be coming from under the driver's side lower dash, like up above the petals. It's the most annoying noise I've ever heard, and it kind of sounds like plastic rubbing or something. It squeaks when I hit bumps or just when the body moves/shakes. When I get under there and look, I can't see anything out of the ordinary or find anything that seems loose. Has anyone else had this noise? Any ideas? Thanks.

In new vehicles, with the high concentrations of plastics and wires nowdays, squeaks are very common. Reach up there, press, pull, twist, etc. until the squeak stops. Mine use to squeak around the access panel along the top of the dash. I had an Explorer that I once shoved an old tee shirt up into the mass of wires to quiet them down.

Good Luck.
