When driving over bumps, speed bumps, slowly in a neighborhood-- anything other than smoothly going down the highway.. my dash to the left of the speedometer(etc) and above the vent-- rattles.. sounds like there is a marble in there. when i apply pressure to the dash.. it stops. any suggestions?
It sounds like there is a Dash Mounting Clip that has Broken and is Rattling against the Inside of the Dash. You will need to Remove the Front Panel of the Dash and check the Mounting Hardware for Breakage.

The flashing engine check light means a code is being stored in the computer. You need to have this code read and this will tell you what system is malfunctioning.
That would be something a person needs to experience first hand.
Does it feel like it coule be bad shocks and the rear is bouncing. That might have also caused the tires to go a little out of round.
Or is it a vibration? Maybe the tires just need to be balanced. Out of balance tires/wheels will vibrate to a certain speed (say 55-65ish) and smooth out as the speed gets higher.
Vibration from about 40-60 mph is usually attributed to wheel balancing, but the onset when you hit a bump seems to indicate play in the steering linkages (tie rods etc) or suspension members and stabiliser bar rubbers but you had that all checked out, that brings us back to the wheel balancing.
The struts and shocks where not tightened properly take it back and have then tighten everything down to correct specs. But before you leave your hosue check your tire lug nuts and make sure they are tight so you can drive over there and like i said have them tighten everything
