Have you looked around? Lifted up the carpet? Checked that the jack and tools are in place?
You just need to track it down. Complaining about it doesnt accomplish that..

I would agree...there are things in the rear hatch area that "could" cause a rattle but I would think it could be nailed down by going over everything/trying to find something loose - a great starting point is the spare tire/jack, etc.

If, however it's something coming from the suspension, etc...that could be more problematic and more difficult to find.

Do a search, the rattle on mine, and on others, stems from the middle rear brake light assembly. I plan to order the gasket so I can remove it and somehow figure out a fix.... When I decide to not be lazy.
