Hey guys,

Hoping someone could help me diagnose the following noise. Started hearing it today, it’s pretty loud, kind of sounds like there’s a box rolling around the back. To me it sounds like a strut bottoming out as well. I’ve tried looking around the back seat area and shacking everything without being able to replicate the sound. Hoping someone has some ideas before I bring it to the dealer.

Note, the rustling sound is me trying to keep the camera steady. You can hear the sound over bumps.

That's a tough one. Hard to tell if it's coming from a loose interior item or a suspension noise. Can you tell the general area it' coming from at least? Not sure, but I don't think that's strut noise. maybe away bar and links? Good luck

Hi Fontaine,

If you end up deciding to visit a certified dealership for further diagnosis I'd be happy to offer assistance if needed. Just send us a PM with your VIN and let me know!

The sound seems to be coming from the rear passenger seat, either inside the cabin or just below it, hard to pin point. As luck would have it, a part I ordered came in today, so the truck is going to the dealer tomorrow regardless.

While driving home from work today I couldn’t hear anything oddly enough, I’m going to head out again to see if it’s back before tomorrow morning.
