My rattle seems to be from the rear passenger side sun shade - it goes away when the shade is raised and hooked. I would prefer not to leave it up all of the time, but my fear is the cause is inside the door and I am out of warranty! Any one here have experience with this problem? Most likely caused by my son's friend playing with the shade and letting it snap back closed a couple of times. Thanks.

I had the rattle issue as well with both sunshades and folding seats. it turned out to be the latch for the center armrest that had a bit of play in it. I wrapped a strip of velcro around the latching bar and problem solved.
