Rear Glass Creaking

I just started experiencing a creaking/rattling sound from the rear glass when going over bumps and uneven roads while the top is up. Has anybody else had this problem? Could that particular panel have become loose? I've had my fair share of problems with rattling, etc. but this is the first time it has actually been the rear glass.

Thanks.

You guys sure it's the glass and not the Styrofoam mold that sits on top of the spare tire in the trunk?

I had mine creek like crazy when it got super cold and I also thought it was the glass but realized it was just the mold.

Nope, I have ridden in the back of the car and can hear it coming from the upper part of the window. Don't know if it's the window or the headliner, and temp doesn't matter. Always does it.

You hear it lots in the winter... sometimes, the front creaks too. At least it sounds like its the front windshield

Yup, took it in to Infiniti last night to get that fixed once and for all. It sounds like my windshield is cracking...

Mine just started doing that too. I thought it was the boxes in the back seat at first, but it sounds more like what you guys are describing.

Guess it's time for another dealer trip for me...
