I was thinking I had a rattle in the rear somewhere, had a metallic sound, only on bumps...
Then I had occasion to remove my GM accessory cargo shade to haul some stuff, and the rattle disappeared.
Re-installed and it is back.
I think it is the actual shade rattling against the housing when bumps are hit, because the shade leaves a little "tongue" and handle sticking out when fully retracted.
Anyone w/ the shade notice similar?
Haven't attempted a fix yet, but was thinking some felt tape on the plastic stop of the shade where it meets the housing might work. Still need to experiment, may just sandwich some fabric in my suspected "fix" spot and see how it goes.
Kind of annoying, love the idea of having the shade in there for times when I want to hide the cargo...but if it is going to rattle, then it may find home in the corner of my garage.
