Parcel Shelf Rattle

On a Stinger GT2 (AWD), with less than 600 miles, when I go over a bump, I notice a rattle which might be coming from the parcel shelf.

Is anyone else experiencing the same rattle? If yes, how to prevent it?

Yes all the time. I was thinking about getting some felt pads and seeing if I can get rid of it.

This is the only complaint I have with mine. LOL I don't know if it's the shelf or the door. Pull the shelf out and see if the rattle persists.

Did you get the bump stops replaced? I noticed mine doesn't rattle as much as it did before the bump stops were replaced under warranty.

I bought some felt pad sheets. Pulled off the bumpstops, traced the shape on the felt pad. Cut holes for the bolts and reassembled everything with the felt pads stuck to the bottom of the bumpstops. No noises whatsoever anymore. I did this after the TSB that worked only on small or rough roads but not on large bumps.

I pulled mine off last week for some stuff from the store when I popped it back in it stopped making noise.

What bumpers are you referring to? The ones on the door or on the parcel shelf?
