Rattling Sound Solved on My Elantra

Odometer: 12,818
MPG: 25.4
The rattling sound in the back of my car was getting slightly worse. It would even rattle when the car was vibrating from idling. But I took it in on Wednesday. They determined it was the trunk torsion bar was loose. They put it back into the holder and problem was solved. Glad they didn't have to take apart anything major. I also got a free multi point inspection and an oil change. The oil change was the only thing I had to pay for, since the rattling issue is considered under warranty and I had a coupon for the inspection.

Also earlier this week, the land lord came and removed the bird's nest and put netting over the pipe. Hopefully that keeps them from pooping on my car. Though I hope he did kill any of the birds. They're really cute.
