Suspension/axle noise on driver's side rear

Lately I've noticed that upon compression over bumps the rear suspension has been a bit more vocal than it used to. I took the car to the dealer today and they said that they are ordering new rear axle bolts to fix the problem. Anyone have anything similar occur? Does it sound like this is an appropriate fix? I'm assuming that maybe the bolts became loose and the slight clunk could induced by this...but I'm no mechanic and I don't see why the bolts would have to be replaced.

I guess when the parts come in, I'll see if the noise goes away...but I still think it may be the suspension. Any ideas?
