Does your Bronco have squeaks and rattles?

[texbronco25]

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.

Same here but I can’t seem to locate it,

Probably the seat.
Try getting out and hitting the side of the seat.
It took me months to find it from my passenger seat

I have to have the empty passenger seat in the lowest position for the rattle to not be constant.

Not a squeak or rattle, but more of a "knock" when the front/rear suspension is twisted in opposite directions. Like crossing a ditch at a 45 deg. angle. I think it has something to do with front sway bar.

It’s definitely at the top. It appears to go away if I crack the back passenger window which seems odd. But it doesn’t rattle all the time which is making it hard to locate.

One of the bolts holding the seat was the fix on mine - I would check for any bolts that might have come loose... As safe as that sounds for them to come loose

My Bronco is a rattle trap and my new hobby is to chase down loose, poor fitting trim pieces and apply felt tape to fix. The good news is that I’ve made progress. The major pain points were the passenger sun visor, driver and passenger B-pillar post/aft. I’m now chasing a rattle in the passenger seat which only happens when unoccupied. I haven’t put any effort into the rear softtop rattles because softtop.

Can you tell me more about the rattle around the visor? Where was it coming from exact;y? The visor itself or the trim pieces around the visor?

And how did you fix it?

Surprisingly very little that over comes normal cabin/wind noise. Out Bronco, I mean Sport is far worse. Our Maverick is pretty far quiet too. But the Bronco although louder, the rattles just don’t exist. And I have OCD. I did fix some the audio system exposed at high volume.

None.

My old human body has squeaks and rattles, plus I have added a bunch of stuff (Broaddict fold down tailgate table, Broaddict cargo molle shelf with attached fire extinguisher, flash light, ... , and my anti-theft steering wheel lock bar. They all rattle and some squeak. Given all the non-Bronco noise, it is tough to quantify where the noise is coming from so I cannot answer.
