Doesn't sound right...I had an '05 and never heard that noise. Now have and '08 and no knocking. Use your warranty, have the dealer look at it.

....and Welcome Aboard!!!

Welcome to the club darkness!

Do you hear the knocking noise when you put it in gear or when you are driving?

Reason I sask is some of us do get a knock when we put the vehicle in gear when it is parked on an in/decline. I have not heard of any knock while driving though.

Take it right to the dealership. Do not pass GO or collect $200. LOL. I'd definitely have them look at it. I have an 07 and any knocking is never good.

Every time you start the engine and begin to move the Anti Lock Brake System goes through a self test. If you start off slowly you will hear a slight knock, almost a ding sound. You may also feel a vibration as the test is done. The test occurs at around 10 MPH.
If this is what you are hearing it is normal and nothing to worry about. In fact it is a good thing, its telling you that the system is working properly.

I've never noticed that.
