Default Liftgate noise

When i hit bumps, the glass on the trunk rattles, is that normal or what can I do to fix it. Oddly enough when i have luggage in the car it doesnt make the noise..confused!

I will keep reading. I got the Crossfire back in January. Funny thing is I used to come here all the time before i got the car just to feel like part of the crowd I really wanted to be in...lol. Its so cool to have a place where other people are obsessed with the same car I am. I still watch videos and get excited when I see another one out in the wild!

There are two adjustment screws attached to the hatch/lift gate, tighten those down until you have no noise. Then using a small rectangle of that waterproof membrane that is sticky on one side when you peel off the backing, they use it on roofs and making showers and things waterproof, stick it on the hard rubber pad. This will help stop scratching the paint and the noise problem.

Other posts say to wrap tape around the latch, I can't see that lasting long, so I just make it good and tight with the added face on the bumper.
