hrmmm not sure make sure nothing is in your trunk that can be causing that noise
have the dealer chek it out while your in for your service
since your car is covered under warranty

Check to make sure your jack stand is tightened in.

Normally a description like that would indicate rear bushings needing to be replaced... not on a 2011 though, you sure it's not snow caught in your wheel wells? Some scary sounds can happen when there's ice in there bahhahah :P

Guys/gals - the OP lives in Edmonton. The weather right now is -20C and colder. OP should wait until temps warm back up before jumping to conclusions. Dealer check wouldn't hurt when in for service next as previously mentioned.

Right rear upper strut bushing was making the noise getting both rear replaced under warranty
