My Sonata is an '05 bvut yours may operate the same. There are 2 or 3 buttons in front of the dome light. Someone may accidentially pushed a button other than you desired setting.

#1194 of 1195 09 Sonata squeak/rattle in dashboard when jolting? [peridoc] by sduff68

I finally fixed the squeak rattle in my 09 Hyundai Sonata Limited I4.
 
I only heard it coming from what appeared at first to be the dash or the windshield area during cold weather (40 degrees or cooler).
 
Based on what i had heard from reviewing multiple hyundai related forums and blogs I decided to try "lubricating" my windshield to see if it might stop the squeak/rattle after dealing with the dealership and trying to use other fixes failed.
 
I sprayed one of those clear tire shine/lubricant sprays (the ones that look silicon based) along the rubber seams in the windshield. I even lifted up the rubber seams and allowed the tire shine spray to get into the cracks.
 
Well, that appeared to solve the problem!
 
I don't know if the rubber was squeaking rubbing against the glass windshield, or if if the rubber was too hard in cold weather, but now I drive over bumps and indentation that used to cause the squeak/rattle and it isn't there!
 
This is a big relief for me, I considered my 09 Sonata Limited to be a poor mans luxury car (especially with it's absolutely beautiful interior) and the squeak/rattle was a huge disappointment.
