Anyone with a Hatch noise issue? by LisaD

Just bought an '09 Ltd. Day after I bought it there's a strong rattle in the hatch area. Husband rode back there and feels it's the hatch itself. I popped the rear hatch ports off to see if there's a loose wire harness but find nothing.
I can't duplicate this noise from the outside when parked for anything. Hatch seems secure.
 
It happens over vibrational road issues like the black strip laid over cracks or minor bumps. It sounds like a door is ajar. Or a marble is hanging from a string inside the hatch bouncing around.
 
I've been trying hard to triage this before service people crawl all over my new car, poke around, remove panels, scratch it up, dirty the carpet, etc. Taking suggestions. (spare is secure)

It's the hatch latch. Closed the hatch with folded papertowels and the noise stopped. The striker needs adjustment. I couldn't reproduce this no matter what except when driving. Good!
