Red face Factory Subs

So I have the Limited Crossfire with the NON NAV Infinity Sound System, and I have the bass on +8 or +9 and my car seems to rattle, is there anyway to fix that without turning the bass down? It just started doing that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

"Rattle" as in the car's body is making undesirable sounds? If so, where is the rattling occuring?

I really dont know, it seems like it is coming from behind the seats. It recently started doing it. My car has a 5yr/100,000 mile warranty on it, im wondering if i took it in if they would find the problem and fix it....

run out to the car real quick and try this quick fix... Get some electrical tape (you can use duck tape, but its not as pretty).... Go open the trunk hatch. Where the hatch connects to the car there is a metal square ring. give the ring a couple layers of electrical tape....

Also, take notice of the rubber cushions on the hatch... where the impact the car (youll see the spots) add some velcro...

IF this doesnt work... return for more quick fixes .

Sorry for the late reply, but none of that solved the problem, I turned my subs all the way up and felt all around the car and inside and I cant find where the rattling is coming from.

Hey! No problem...OK! In that case try this, (I figured this out when I was having the same problems)...
Turn up your bass until you hear those rattles... Get outside the car and put a good amount of pressure on the back window, near the top specifically...
If this changes the rattling then I have another very easy 10 dollar fix... Just reply and ill post directions... If it is still rattling, still reply and ill keep trying other rattle preventions

Ok, well it isn't the back glass, or really anything to do with the hatch, I listened between my seats, and its sounds like both of the speakers are vibrating something in that wall behind my seats.
