Cool that sounds much better than glue. So you just popped off the springboots (black poppers) put the pennies in and put them back on?

I went to the dealership to get mine fixed like 3 times, but it still keeps happening. Tried the penny trick and it helped a bit, but I couldn't get the 2nd spring boot off so only one of them has a penny in there. Since I'm getting close to the 36k mile mark, I will try and go to a different dealership to try and get it fixed. Maybe they can think of something.

yep, just remove the spring assembly from the hatch, pull down the boot, pull out the spring, drop 2 pennies, re-assemble. takes no more than 5min and $0.04.
