2014 CX-5 Clunking/Rattling Can Noise From The Rear

[dtf51983]

Hey,

I have seen a couple posts about a clunking noise that seems to come from the rear and I was wondering if anyone got a definitive answer as to what it was.

A couple months ago, my 2014 Cx-5 GT started making a clunking noise that sounds a little like cans being dragged from the rear. It was intermittent, and seemed to happen mostly when making right turns but then would clunk for a few seconds but seems to stop when it straightens up.

I brought it to Mazda, they said they only heard it once and couldn't replicate it but "checked everything" and everything seemed fine. They told me to bring it in on a day when I could leave it all day, which I did, and still nothing.

Fast forward two months, and now it seems to happen alot more frequently. I now hear it on right turns, left turns, and other times. I can't believe that they wouldn't know what this is. Should I take it to another Mazda Dealer?

Or go around the dealer and get Mazda US involved. There's a customer service 800# on the web site.

IIRC there is a TSB related to rear shock bushings.

That makes me real nervous that the dealer wouldn't be aware of the TSB and just do it. My other car is a 2005 Prius and I never had to prompt a dealer to do a TSB.
