Got my car back in July, and its been a dream so far. However a couple of days ago I started hearing a thumping/rattling sound coming from the drivers side front of the car. I can't get service until next week, which is disappointing as I only have 2 weeks left of my current job with a long, fast commute, but hoping mobile service can fix it on the spot and get me back up and running. I dont have a flat, nor is there anything visibility loose from the outside, so fingers crossed!

Rattling from driver's side wheel area

By carefully listening to the sound at low speed and accelerating, you should be able to figure out if it's something about the wheel or tire (makes a noise once every wheel rotation), or just something on the car loose and rattling.
As we have had many very hot days this summer, I have picked up clumps of road-patch tar that stick to my tires. They stay stuck surprisingly long, but do let loose when I approach highway speeds.

Interesting, ill try and have a local shop check for anything loose. It started primarily as I went over uneven ground or bumps, but got more pronounced where now its constantly noticeable. I've stopped driving it but needed to drive about 50 miles home once the noise first started
