Is this the infamous tailgate rattle? Non SAS OBX
Wow! Thatās awesome, great investigative work! I will get some more felt tape and give that a go. I used up all my rolls on the other rattles@Ksjrb03
I fixed that damn sound and it has nothing to do with the tailgate itself. I went to the back and just started pushing on random pieces / panels. Lo and behold, when I tapped on the plastic to the right of the latch area, where it meets the body, it made the exact sound I was hearing. I happened to have some felt tape, so I cut it up and shoved multiple pieces in there. The side making the most noise was the inside, towards the cabin. The outer side made little noise but I figured I'd cover it just to be sure. I took it for a test drive and sure enough, it was that plastic panel making that loud ass noise. I'll take it for another drive tomorrow on a bad road to be 100% sure, but I didn't hear it once on the drive I took.
Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? Iād like to look into this concern on my end.Another one with the rattle, 2021 2 dr base Sas, took it in about three weeks ago for first oil change at 3200 miles. I have a take home work car so I donāt drive the bronco much except on the weekends. After the oil change I noticed a weird click/tapping sound coming from what sounds like the inside of the upper left side of the tailgate.
Iām not too much of a tripper for rattles inside but this one has no pattern, canāt replicate it unless driving, and it seems to be getting worse.
wife drove while I rode in the back and vise versa and we both pinpointed it to a click/tap/ inside the tailgate on the upper left side.
Reading this thread it appears there is no fix from Ford yetā¦
this thing has the potential to make it not bearable if it gets worse
My thoughts exactly. When I took delivery of mine, I had a rattle also and found my dealer had placed the 16" breaker bar and socket kit in there.What about the little tray area under the cargo area? That might sound like the tailgate from the front seat.
Yes, it will get worse and it is unbearable. The only two known "fixes" for the tick are getting the dealer to replace and repaint a new tailgate, or spray the crap out of the interior of tailgate with lube.Another one with the rattle, 2021 2 dr base Sas, took it in about three weeks ago for first oil change at 3200 miles.

Not idealā¦.itās my first Fordā¦Yes, it will get worse and it is unbearable. The only two known "fixes" for the tick are getting the dealer to replace and repaint a new tailgate, or spray the crap out of the interior of tailgate with lube.
Softer suspension helps too! LOL. I don't notice it nearly as much after installing my eibach coilovers.Yes, it will get worse and it is unbearable.
