I have a '16 AT with 9K miles. The only rattle I have is the simple armrest release button. The dealership says there is no fix and another replacement would just do the same. Not a big deal. As for the hatch not opening (without 2 button presses) you'll have to deal with it. I've added 2 nickels to each spring-boot and that worked for a week. I then removed the nickels and glued a rubber washer to the frame to build up the little springs at contact (another member said it worked for him). It worked for 2 days. I've also removed the 5 lb weight in the hatch (under plastic cover). In the end, there really is no fix from Nissan. This has been an issue since the 2009 model. I have a feeling the trunk roll-cover may play a role in keeping the hatch down. I've made my piece with it. Overall I'm happy with the lack of rattles/issues.
