Bought a new Mazda 3 and on the second week could hear a rattling or jiggling sound from trunk. Thought it was just something I put there like jumper cables,tools,spare tire,jack,etc.Decided to take everything out and it was still there. Took it to the Dealer and they tore it apart and finally after 5 hours said the rear shocks need replacing. I drove a Corolla for 10 years and never replaced the shocks,how can a new car need the shocks replaced?? Several people at my work own Mazda 3s and they have the same rattling from the trunk. I wonder if all new 3s need new shocks? Other than this the car has been great.
