Do a search on the forum, you'll see what I mean. There are countless threads about different methods owners have used to combat the annoying rattles common in many of the cars. It seems as though the 'verts have less rattles. Hmmm, probably because they have less panneling and less noise isolation. You probably hear everything else but the rattles.

As for the Carfax, I did my own report, then the dealer included one with the Certified 8/80 warranty. No issues were reported. Well, that doesn't tell much does it? Carfax is a joke. The only thing that shows up on the Carfax reports are claimed issues. Chrysler owned the car before I did. Who knows what they did to it? I did however climb under, around, and inside every nook and cranny looking for welds, over spray, and other tell tale signs of an accident. Nothing. My car's rattles are quite common unfortunately.
