Does your Bronco have squeaks and rattles? Where do they come from? Vote for all that apply.
I honestly don't know what's normal and what's a rattle. Definitely noisier than my sedan. I don't know that I believe that 41% have no rattle unless they are able to differentiate.

So far it’s quieter than I expected. And I have OCD. Rattles drive me insane. Bronco Sport my wife drove was worse.

Nope, unless you count my squeals of joy and random giggles….

Frameless windows rattle when rolled down, but to be expected. I know why they did frameless though.

I have one somewhere in the driver door close to my ear. Window up and window down doesn’t matter. Haven’t been able to track it down. So annoying.

My passenger front roof panel rearward out latch has rattled since <1000 miles. Ive also had wind noise where that panel meets the rear clamshell (2 door) and I can feel air coming in at hwy speeds. My dealer attempted to adjust it but nothing changed. If I shine a flashlight around the edges I can see light inside at the corners where both front panels meet the rear. Its clear that the front panels do not line up with the rear so its going back to the dealer tues.

🤔Dang it. Now I’m going to get in it and listen🧐 for them. Just chalked all that noise up to the soft top.

Squeaks and rattles everywhere. 22 base soft top 4d. I live with it because it’s a base. It would make me so upset if I sprung for a higher trim and had the amount of squeaks and rattles I have now. But it’s a ford so did we really expect anything else?

Front left side of drivers seat developed a squeak at 9000 miles. Drivers side windshield whipper had a squeak for the first 5000 miles but is now gone. The hard top made that cracking sound, but I lubed the guide nipples and haven't had the sound come back.

My wife's Black diamond has some soft top rattles especially when the top it down and stored. A few other little squeaks but nothing that I consider bad. Its a soft top it will not be super quiet.
My Badlands is really quiet and feels more solid than the black diamond and it is still a soft top. I really feel like the quality of the broncos has improved as the production has moved on. Seems to be way more issues with the early trucks.

Front passenger door has had a nasty rattle for a few months now. Dealership has had it multiple times, once overnight, to try and fix it. Replaced the regulator. Still happening. I even tried the window alignment fix with the little bolts underneath the door.
Guess I'll let them keep trying, because it's very annoying.
Hi there. Can you send us a DM with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into this for you.

My bronco is whisper quiet in the squeak and rattle department - BUT, when I do accelerate from a standstill there is this slight "creaking" noise....its very subtle but i hear it every time....like there is something creaking in the engine bay.....(a GREMLIN???? MOGWAI???)
Hi there! Can you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into this for you, if you'd like.
