Body Pop or Click Noise at Rear When Driving Over Bumps at Slow Speeds Some customers may comment that an intermittent pop or click noise is heard when driving over bumps at slower speeds. This noise may be most noticed near the passenger side C-pillar, just behind the rear seatback. The cause of the condition may be due to a process weld missing from the passenger side inner body sheet metal. This process weld normally joins the right quarter inner panel brace to the right quarter inner panel to reduce noise between the two panels. The vehicles missing the process weld were specifically found to be Fairfax built vehicles. All vehicle testing and validation were performed without this process weld.
