3 Diff Wierd Noises...

I drove to baltimore today and while I was on the highway I noticed some wierd sounds I never heard before...

like a metallic rattle of some sort from the rear whenever I went over something bumpy at 75-80 mph. I had the radio off the entire time so I could pinpoint where it was coming from...

well anyway I also started to notice a small rattle coming from my center console... I think it was my radio unit. anyone know how to fix this?

On my way home I did a sharp left turn at 30-40mph and I picked up some strange rattle on the front left side of my car. I tried to repeat this on the right side and no sound... but left side there is... wierd???

What could this be? Or what could it mean. I'm worried
