Take it to the dealership. I had the same noise and my rear strut was blown. It started right under 1000 miles for me. The other noises people are talking about don't sound like suspension noises.

I actually thought these were my problem as well. If you really look at it and you have the carpet/cover over the tools and tires, they really can't bounce. The rear deck sounds more like a click like when a soda bottle is pressed in on itself.

If you are still hearing it, I would take it in as well. I waited about 700 miles to take it in. My shock was completely limp.
