I spoke too soon, got rid if window rattle, rear hatch rattle now I noticed a deeper sounding rattle under the the car in back...... not too bad but a rattle is a rattle...... off to the dealer tomorrow after all. I read something about people with this issue: [COLOR=#000000]There was something on the rear sub-frame catching on the body around the mounting bushes causing a rattle. Anyone with this issue??? or ever hear about this... I know turn up the sound and all rattles go away..... still would like to find out the cause hopefully something simple and easy for the dealer to fix. [/COLOR]

You might take a look at your right side tailpipe/exhaust tip hanger. I think there, the inner portion can contact the outer portion of the hanger when the rubber suspension between the metal parts ages or breaks down.

Producing more of a clanking sound, I had hit a badger and knocked a couple rivets out of the fuel tank protection (skid plate) on right side. It would flap and contact the floor pan when going over bumps. Also, check the aluminum shielding under the tank. I think it's fasteners can be tightened to eliminate play.

Just got back from the dealer to have them check where the noise is coming from.... NO luck one tech said it my new springs???? yet I told them it's been there for a few months springs are less than a week old???? I think they just can not figure it out themselves or don't want to spend time looking..... not a happy camper right now... Like I said I solved 2 of the 3 noises / rattles. window and rear hatch but the 3rd one is bugging me. May go to a different dealer next week.... or try to crawl under the car later today to have look myself.....I will check the things you suggested..... hopefully find the rattle... thanks...

I apologize if this is considered hijacking a thread...but I have a rattle that sounds like its coming from the dashboard behind the speedometer. It rattles anytime there's a significant bump (which riding on the 17's happens frequently). Any thoughts on what I should look for?

looked under the car could not find anything loose now what??

[Fiat_Phil]

Not really good luck with that one..... could be simple as a loose screw take it apart and see or have a dealer take a look...

Hi Fiat_Phil,
Was the dealer unable to diagnose or unable to repair? If you decide to return to a dealer, I would recommend going on a ride along with the technician to make sure they are able to hear the noise you are describing, as it may help with diagnosis. If you need any assistance in scheduling this or following up, you can PM our page with your VIN, contact, and dealer information.
