Place to get my rattles fixed?

Yo, I love my car but there has got to be something I can do or a place to bring my car to get out all the rattles. kinda like the ding wizards for dents and dings, but a shop for rattles. I mean, there is a bunch of vibrations that sound like the car has loose fittings or something. I took the car to the dealer for the 3rd brakelight rattle and they said they fixed it. I took her home and it was still there. took it back and same shit. i just give up on acura dealers for that kind of shit. i only got 25k on it and it sounds like its falling apart.

I don't have an answer to your question, but I can sympathize with your third brake light rattle. I have had a rattle coming from the center brake light since day 1. The dealer has looked at it three times and I still have the rattle. I give up.

that would be ideal, but I have a spoiler without the brakelight. It was an aftermarket one. just my luck. I swear, i feel like spraying that expanding foam insulation all over the friggin car just to get rid of the loose bolt syndrome.

one word, DOMESTIC. Its kind of embaracing when I drive with someone new in the car, i have to turn up the radio or open the windows to drown out the sound of the rattles. I feel like I owe them an explanation.
