Excessive road noise from passenger side
 

Anybody getting this like the window or door sounds like it's open a crack? I noticed it but I never said anything to the dealer. When they road tested my car for a completely other matter (dash rattle which they fixed) the shop foreman OFFERED to fix it for me saying the Cobalts are missing some sound deadening material right under the rear passenger floor board which causes the excessive noise. So for those who are experiencing the same issue, ask your dealer to fix it. I think there's a TSB on this but I'm not sure. :cssNET:

Anybody...this is a good heads-up on a possinble free fix.

I have it,
but if I complain they'll probably blame the motor mount :lol: dumb as dealers

dont have that but i do have a few interior rattles and when i go over bumps it sounds like somwhere on the left side of the car (passenger side) something is hitting metal, like the seat belt buckle hitting the door, but thats not it lol, ahwell, i think im jsut gonna clean the crap outta myu car and find all the possible sweaks and rattles and bring to the dealer for the future.

I'll keep an ear out for it now...usually the music is so damn loud I can't even hear myself think. Thanks for the heads-up Ang.

Yup. We get it. Wife complains of this all the time. I am having the hinge re-adjusted for a firmer fit and hopefully this resolves the problem. I also noticed that when washing the car more water penetrates on that side than on the driver side.

I also have the problem with excessive road noise coming from the passanger side of the car like the door isn't closed all the way. The rattle that is coming from the passenger side is most likely from the glove box, it rattles like freakin crazy and it worse when you run the ac. I took a rag and stuck it between the left side of the glove box and the dash and the rattle stopped.

Yeah I have that rattle too.
