Bottle-Cap-Popping-Like Noise

So I have this funny noise coming from the driver floor, specifically in the middle but just a bit more towards the pedals. Very annoying, I hear it every time I get in and out of the truck. Like the title states, it makes the same noise as the aluminum cap of a glass bottle after it's been opened, and I only hear it when my feet would push down on the driver floor. No problems for the passenger floor or anywhere else... :confused: any thoughts? suggestions?

No i don't believe they did... but that does sound logical. I guess I'll know for sure after pulling up the carpet. And just to be sure I'm not wasting my time, this problem is in fact abnormal right? I mean, none of you have experienced anything like this?

And how would I go about to get a good glimpse of what's under there? From where can I pull up the carpet? Thanks

Ya I'll deff be having another word with the dealer once I get the chance...

I got the slush mats on too. But I must say it's mostly from the outside that the noise is heard at; from the inside it's quiet, but can slightly be felt from the heel of the foot.

Put your foot on the floor and hear a cracking outside! WTF!! LOL. that sounds kinda extreme for themnot to find it lol. Im wondering if the noise is from the seat moving back and its not tightened all the way to the body
floor so when you press your foot it moves...

just an armchair suggestion but the tech in me needs to think of it lol.

Almost everytime I use my Overland, I will hear some kind of click sound which sounds like a relay of some type. Now whether it's for the ventilated seat or HVAC system I don't know. I also can't tell where it's coming from. Seems to only do it when the car has already been warmed up and operated for at least 10 minutes.
