well start by checking the sway bar links they are a common problem, they break or get worn and make noise, heres a picture of what they look like, and where they are located, hope this helps.
Check or have service tech check rear diagonal arms, not the control arms. The tech will need to hit the bolt heads with a hammer, and you should hear the difference from left to right side. Another noise that can also be heard at times on some cars is the rear 1/4 window mounting rivets making a noise over bumps. Dealers should know about these...
lower hood back until front edge of hood is above drivers head when seated in car, then release cables holding rear edge of hood to body (one each side clipped onto two ball joints, and unclip long plastic rain channel along rear of hood. lift rear frame/rear window up to vertical behind driver. remove compartment and carpet held by four 1/2 turn screws to uncover engine cover, this is released by turning locking clips 1/2 turn
It's probably the rear sway bar links. If you can jack your car up and check right behind both rear wheels you will be abale to see the sway bar which is connected to short links about 5in long with ball joints.
If either of them are broken or not connected anymore it can cause some pretty loud noises when you ride on rough roads or hit bumps. They run about $35 per link so it's not a very expensive repair.
I had rattling noises as well (over bumps and when I reved the engine) and it turned out to be the heat shields under the car. I took out 2 heat shields covering the two cats on both sides AND two rusted out dangling rings hanging from the exhaust coupler (have NO clue what they were for)..This has TOTALLY gotten rid of the rattling noise. Good luck!
check out the alarm module under the drivers seat most likely its flooded if so check out the roof tub drains and if it is only the dealer can replace and recode module to the car
