Loud rattle above drivers side visor.......

It started about a week ago, and it only happens when I go over bumps and bump roads.

Anyone experience this?

Just give it a good bang with your fist. That usually fixes it.

I've got something like this. Hm... mine's white and I'm in Cali too. Mine's done it since day one though... need to bug the dealer about looking into that.

Bring it to the dealership. I had a buzz/rattle and thought it was drom the door frame, but it turned out to be the headliner, by the sunroof.

I have a very noticeable creeking sound with my sunroof. This may be the sound you are hearing. I have not found a way to make it less noisy or go away. Anyone have or heard of a solution???

yea mine sounded like clicking noises coming from the a-pillar/windshield area when going over bumps. i took off the pillar covers to see if i could see anything. I even tried pushing the windshield to see if it was loose. i couldnt find anything wrong. It drove me nuts. Strangely enough after about a month it went away on its own.

i also have/had the pillar noise near the passenger side window that comes and goes now but the sunroof remains a problem. The creeking is incessant and loud enough tha i hear it when the sunroof slide is closed. It's the entire area. I guess I will have the dealership take a look when i go for next scheduled maintenance.

I had the same sound, it was something stupid like my sunglasses in that little shade holder thing rattling, I took the shade out and the rattle is gone

My damned sunroof just started creeking like mad on every single speed bump and even normal bumps. It's like the roof is flexing too much and twisting the sunroof. I'm adding that to my shopping list of warranty items
