    So on my drive home in the new Prime yesterday I was testing the JBL system in the car. I did turn the bass up and noticed that on tracks with particularly heavy bass, I could hear some rattling or fast clicking somewhere in the car. I thought something was vibrating and hitting one of the windows, but I couldn't find anything that would do that.

    Has anyone else experienced this in a JBL'd Prime?

    I've only owned the car a couple of days, but even turning up the bass slightly and the volume to a decent level, the rear hatch vibrates.

    Great if you love the beats, but I was quite surprised how little I had to do to get the car thumpin'!

    I too am rather pleased with the audio in the limited. You can extract a good amount of bass from it. Much more than the xle trim. I was kind of bummed it didn't have a sub at first. But honestly it keeps up with our crv with a sub. It still lags behind our old 2006 frontier with the Rockford Fosgate system in it though.
