I suppose it rattles like mad as It was the case for my 2012 Corolla. Any mechanic or muffler shop will fix it for cheap…paid $10 to fix it. ---

In the previous instance, the poster described an actual problem but made the mistake of saying his car was “mobile” when he obviously meant “immobilized.” Subsequent posters jumped on it and pretended–at least I _hope_ they were pretending–that they didn’t understand, and produced images of an empty car rolling downhill. None of that was helpful, just laughing at the poster. OTOH, this person hasn’t told us much of anything. You’re right that my response could have been more gentle though, and I’ll try to do better in the future. In the meantime, you keep your apples and I’ll keep my oranges.
