People have described the noise as clunking, clicking, and popping. The noise is most obvious when you're traveling at low speeds (< 10mph).
When you take your car to the dealership for inspection, do not be vague and say there's a noise coming from the back of the car. Tell them it's the shock making the noise. Some dealers are not aware that this is a common problem. Fortunately, I went to a dealer that was aware. It took them a couple of days to order the shock and the install was an hour.
BTW, rear shock replacement is done through the trunk. The mechanic won't touch the wheel.

I totally agree!! Can Webby or any mod make this a sticky. So many people have the same exact issue in the same area in the right passenger rear suspension. The most common causes seems to be shocks/struts. I am still not sure about the "body seam" theory. I scheduled a road test with the dealership for friday, and this is with a different and bigger dealership. Hopefully they can diagnose issue more accurately.
