Does anyone have this problem I am having?
Whenever I hit even small bumps in the road I hear a loud clunk in the back.
Sort of like the shocks getting handle the occasional bumps in the road.
I have brought it in for service and they have found no problems. It is very
annoying to me! I have a 4 door DE 2000 Mirage with 25,000 miles. Other
than this it is a great car!

    Have a 2000 Mirage with 14,000 miles. It seems to hiss excessively when I accelerate. Sound is high pitched, like wind escaping through a leaky hose or something. I know that as a result of the way the fuel injection works, some hissing sounds are normal. But, I've never heard a car make such loud sounds. Took it to the dealer, and they can't find anything wrong with it. But it just doesn't seem right to me. Anyone else have this kind of problem?
