Rattling from Center/Behind Seats

Anyone else have annoying rattles that sound like they are coming from the center console area and behind the seats and if so what did you do to fix them or did you just learn to live with them. I don't remember noticing the rattling as much, so I am wondering if something has come loose on the inside, or maybe the exhaust/heat shield. Any advice would be apperciated, it is starting to get on my nerves and is kind of embarrassing when driving other people around

Yes. I have the same problem as you described. Very annoying and I believe is coming from inside the car at the rear shelf. I'll have to look at it tonight... but suspect an interior part is loose...I'll let you know what I find out.

for me, the rear rattling was from the trunk floor not being seated properly, so it was bouncing around over rough roads.

It is a pretty common problem. Three dealers have tried to fix it on my car but the rattling is still there.

Like the other pist suggested I checked the trunk floor liner.
