What I did was to raise the wedge stop on the rear body of the car.

1. Open your upper rear lid
2. You'll see two black things on the left and the right, that's the wedge stop. This wedge stop meets the wedge on the upper lid covering the rear lid gas spring.
3. You can raise the wedge stop by turning the screw in the middle of the wedge counterclockwise. The screw is covered by a rubber buffer. Just pry it out. Don't get the wrong screw. It's the one in the middle of the wedge stop.

I raised it enough to make sure the rear lid doesn't move when the car goes on a bump or uneven road.

Attached is the photo of the wedge stop.

While this is a correct fix to address the rattling issue, those who have automatic tailgate beware - there will be times when the gate might not close and will re-coil, requiring to push it down by hand in the last 0.5" of the movement. That is especially true if the car is on incline - front facing up.
