Major rattles from hand brake area/ possibly transmission 04 auto tran
Was just on the highway earlier today and noticed some major rattling sound coming from the hand brake area. I hear it at all speeds except below 4 mph. It sounds like a consistent gear churning, and other times it is more of a random sound, akin to a bolt being loose and bouncing around. When I touch the hand brake, the rattle seems to be focusing through there but do not know for sure. I am concerned there will be major bills assosciated with these new problems, but would something like this be covered under warrant if it indeed is hand brake related vs transmission? I understand here in canada there is a drivetrain warrant up to 100,000. I have 67,000 kms on the car ('04 AT)
Any one else experience what i just described?

issue resolved today by my mechanic. The cable for the hand brake cable came loose inside the brake housing on the back left wheel and was making a whole bunch of racket not just outside the car, but it would vibrate the cable all the way back to the hand brake lever inside the car. Thats what I misunderstood as being a tranny issue.
