Description of the problem	About 2 months after getting this car i noticed a rattling noise coming from the sunroof on the right side of the car. The noise got more pronounced when running over some small bumps even at low speeds. I took the car to route 23 auto mall service department in butler, nj; the same dealer where i got the car.
