I hear a rattle when driving over bumps, and it seems to come from the front passenger side. My vehicle has less than 5,000 miles on it. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Sometimes, fixing a car issue can be pretty simple, like tightening up a loose bolt or part. Even if you’re not a professional, you can try this trick: lift one corner of your car at a time to lift the tire off the ground. Then, gently move the tire up and down and side to side. See if you feel any movement or hear strange noises. If that doesn’t work, you can safely get under the car and check for any loose parts or bolts. You might need a wrench to tighten them up. If you’re still stuck, it might be time to ask for help from other car enthusiasts. Although not many might own the same car as you, car problems like knocks and rattles are often similar across different models and years.
I’m sorry to hear about the issue. If you decide to visit your local dealership for further diagnosis, I’d be happy to assist if needed. Just send me a PM with your VIN, and I’ll be ready to help.
If you have less than 5k miles, you’re likely still under warranty. You should take it in.
Yes, it’s a common issue. It could be due to loose suspension components or a faulty sway bar link. A mechanic should check it out.
