My hardtop has a slight rattle. Sounds like its coming from the mid panel (above the back row seats) and sounds like its coming from the passenger side. It doesn't bug me too much, just something I've noticed since purchasing my bronco.

My 2023 2Door has a consistent rattle in the passenger door, windows closed. Driver does the same but not consistent or as loud. Is there a TSB for this?

Hardtop squeaks rattles and sounds like it's going to fall apart around me. The MIC is an absolute 100% fail. 65k vehicle and this is the best they could do??

Tailgate makes loud pop or bump on hard bumps. But this bothers me less knowing I have a heavy wheel and tire hanging from it. It's occasional also.

The MIC could be enough to have me dump the Bronco. Love it otherwise, but the creaking and popping in the top gets worse and worse by the day.

Windows rattle when partially open too.

Love the Bronco overall. It's great to drive, cool to look at, fun to personalize, but it's by far the worst vehicle I've ever owned out of 30+ vehicles, quality wise. Ford's quality has really slipped off the edge. Very disappointing!!

We now have two Broncos, both 2-door Sasquatch. The new 2023 one has 500 miles and squeaks from front left when going over bumps in the road slowly. It sounds like an OLD car. Also it makes beeps when parked and left alone. Also, it has the wiper motor issue where it shuts down when it rains.

By far the absolute most annoying sound is the tailgate tin noise.

I'm convinced its a bad weld but my dealer says they can't do anything until its TSB'd

Didn't read the whole thread, but mine has the same rattle that me Wrangler developed after 3 years of ownership. Lo and behold, I figured out that it was my 2 yo's car seat ;)

Other than that, I have some squeaks and rattles from all the junk in the back right now, but other than a slight visor noise that goes away when I press on the visor for a second, mine is pretty good.

I have never owned or ridden in any vehicle that didn't have a fixed roof that didn't have some rattles and squeaks. Targa tops, T-tops, soft tops, hard top convertibles - they all make some noise. ;)

The Sub Rattle is by far the worst and most embarrassing when I have occupants. The Soft top squeak over my head is annoying and I sometimes drive with my hand on the soft top cross member to quiet it down. The tailgate is not as bad since I put the FlowFX on to drown it out. I'd hate to hear what noises there are on this thing with the stock exhaust. That said with the top back and the windows down, the wind noise makes all that go away, and it's pure bliss.

I didn't expect my wife's Lexus in Quality, but I would expect modern car manufacturers to have a clue on how to design interlocking panels that don't make me feel like the bottom floor of a cheap motel.

Does your Bronco have squeaks and rattles? Where do they come from? Vote for all that apply.
Does anyone have a fix for what sounds like creaking coming from the back of my 2 door at slow speeds? It sounds like it might be where the rear window seal meets the tailgate but not sure.
Let me know,
Thx

Ford are you still following up on hard top rattles? Mine sounds like it’s coming apart in several different areas.

l love my Bronco except for the top making so much noise when travelling over uneven surfaces.

Please advise.

Thanks
