On hard left turns there is usually a scrape sound that comes from the rear left side of the car. I put up with it for a while but now whenever I even go over mild bumbs the same scrape sound will happen again.

Would that have anything to do with quad shox or torque box's? Do quad shox go out? Even if I punch it in second gear it will make the scrape sound in the back.

ADVICE!? [patriot]

Jack up your car, remove the rear tires and look for scrape marks on your quad shocks, and any other areas that you can think of. [patriot]

Who gets the retard award for the day? ME.

I noticed my hatch was released and that was the cause of the constant scrape sound.

I DO however still get it on hard left turns. When I look under there there is a wear mark on what looks to be a metal plate on the inner wheelwell.
