Hi, has anyone found a way to physically disable the Haptic actuator on the trackpad of the Macbook Pro M4? I am thinking about returning it unless I can find a way. The trackpad experience is awful because the haptics make the whole case rattle and feel tinny, even on the lightest setting.

You might want to try this tool: https://github.com/shalamand3r/SlabPad
It’s a small utility that disables the Force Touch haptic feedback on MacBook trackpads, which can stop the rattly/tinny feeling while still letting you press to click. Might be worth trying before returning the laptop.

Of course look at GitHub for the answer!
This is SO helpful! Thank you! This is exactly the kind of app I was looking for. This solved the terrible, tinny haptic feeling.
So glad it helped!!!

I would recommend you bring the system to an Apple Store for them to checkout. It sounds like yours has a problem. It shouldn't cause the whole case to rattle or feel tinny.
So while one can kill it it's not someing I recommend as you would need to replace it to get it working again.
