I swear most Teslas I hear driving always have a “rattle” when they go over bumps. Sounds like bad build quality, I rarely hear other cars with the issue. For sure seem like poorly made cars.
It could be the control arms. Older Model 3's have famously shitty control arms that collapse all the time, but a lot of people don't seem to notice until it gets really bad (myself included, unfortunately).
I may have had bad luck, but I feel like this is very common across any American car brand. Recently rode in a new Rivian, and the door closing had a rattle like something was a little loose.
