Problems when storring in

As you guys know i have my 03 Sedan stored in the garage for winter. I havent drove it for last 2-3 months. i start it onces a week or so. Today was a nice day so i decided to drive it on my block. What i have noticed was, the driving wasnt the same, Rattle Started from the passenger side. and some noise started coming from the rear end (it came on and off)
Will these problems go away as i start driving it regularly? Far as the Rattle problem, will the dealer fix it under warrenty and whats the chances of rattle comminng back?

I'm not sure if its safe to have the car in the garage now. I sometime think of taking it out but i hope to have it in the garage for another month till march 17.

I think you are better off not starting the car unless you can actually drive it. You would be better off to drive it once a month and get it hot and then put it back rather than start it and let it idle once a week.

My car is the same way, every time I let it sit it feels like a different car. Its really not good on a car to sit and not be driven. I would try to drive it to the store and back once a week, if you can.
