Default Rattle in the Rear

I have an 04 SS. I started hearing this rattle in the rear on the drivers side not too long ago. It rattles any time i go over a bump or hit a pot hole. Now though I am getting the rattle on both sides. I have not figured out where it is coming from. Anyone else had this issue?

Welcome to MCF Melinda!!!

Can you tell us a bit more about the rattle? I have the same model and may be of help. Does it sound like its coming from the trunk, rear panels by the seat belts?

Can you be a bit more specific?

Otherwise I'd say get the junk out of the trunk.

welcome,
Check the rear struts. My moms grand am just did this to her also found out the rear struts were bad and one was lose so they replaced them both no more rattel. Good luck hope you find it

Im pretty sure I know this one! I had a rattle just the same as yours and when I told my mechanic what was happening he said it was the two 6" rods that connect the anti sway bar to the rear end. I ask him how he knew this over the phone and he said these go out on Chevy's alot. He was right, the set of two cost me about $20.00 and that solved the problem. The reason Im so sure this is the same as my problem is one side started to rattle and within aweek the other side started.
