So this noise has been random and short but this time it did it for a while and then eventually stopped. I feel it vibrating in the dash a little and is by the driver vent. What can this be!?!?

That's your flasher relay. The turn signal stalk didn't return fully to center. The problem will get more frequent until you replace the multifunction switch.

Fortunately the multi-switch is inexpensive and easy to replace.
