Interior rattles?

It shouldn’t make any sounds from the factory, IMO, but it is a pretty massive hatch. Hopefully you can get it adjusted on your own. They gave me the tape the day I brought it in, we were going to test drive but it started pouring with rain so I asked for something to try and they obliged.

Thanks. I can imagine how that tape would do the trick. It totally sounds like the hatch rubbing on that hard rubber piece. Unfortunately, yesterday there was some snow and dropping temps, so they BLASTED the roads with salt. The roads are now the worst they have been all winter! Hoping for rain now.
Thanks again for the pics.

Just wanted to circle back with my update... I removed the privacy cover from the rear hatch and the noise stopped. Simple enough. If I ever have the need for privacy, I'll either put it back or use the frunk.

Did you try tightening it down first? I found mine kind of loose at first too then I cranked it pretty hard and it seemed to help. Good you found it, bad you have to remove part of your car to cure it lol.

It is still present in mine. I have noticed it doesn’t do it in very cold temps (less than 30 degrees F) and only does it when going slow (probably less than 35 MPH) and doesn’t take hardly any bumps for the noise to trigger (sometimes just backing out of the garage it does it). I have an appointment with dealer for yearly maintenance next week and planning on bringing it up to see if they can diagnose. I am wondering if it’s where the windshield and dash meet.

This can also be used between panels that might squeak. The manufacturers use this to rap their wiring harnesses so that they don't rattle against the chassis or plastic panels. This can also be placed on the rear hatch glass just underneath where the plastic panels sometimes rub on the glass. Most of it can be put underneath the plastic panel, while the part that is exposed will be somewhat hidden by the black color already on the glass.
