Brand new owner have a question about a noise

I just purchased a used 2016 P90DL , On the freeway I hear a noise that sounds like something constantly hitting/tapping the left rear of the car, it is not rhythmic, it sounds like a rope or long piece of rubber slapping around. Any ideas on what I should be looking for ?
 
Once, this happened to me -- but it certainly wasn't just after purchase. Something had gotten caught underneath the carriage and was hitting the tire (but not all the time). Had to bring it in to service twice before they believed me and found the problem!
 
Yes it does

A shot in the dark, but I had something similar. Until I took out the piece of trim in the middle of the roof connecting left and right side of the car (the part just above the headrests) and found a long piece of rubber under it that wasn't properly glued in place. That rubber looked pointless so I just took it out completely.
