| A loose rattling sound began to get much more pronounced and louder coming from the rear passenger area. i determined it wasnt a loose/unlatched door, took the car to the dealer. upon inspection they found that the rear shock absorber had lost all of its fluid, reducing its operation to near 0%. if this had occured on a long trip (apporx 200-400 miles, the amount covered in about a week) this lack of wheel control could have been disastrous. this loud rattling masked another similar problem with the drivers side front strut; this is an even greater safety issue concerning controlling the car. both strut and shock were replaced by the dealer. a less perceptive or attentive driver might have missed these telltale indicators of some part failure, which could lead to loss of control of the vehicle.. | |||
