My 2.7 WildTrak Squatch does the same. Noticed around 3,000 miles and only have 4,500 on it now. Never been off road. Originally I thought it was just ācold,ā but now it does it slightly upon accelerating AND a few times at random after starting (cold or hot). The easiest time to notice is...
I think we overlook and dismiss things initially, just thinking itās āhow things are.ā Itās a sinking feeling once I realize thereās something wrong that wonāt likely be remedied quickly. Then, if it IS a drive shaft design issue, wonāt the new drive shaft do the exact same thing? š
This doesnāt happen at every stop for me, but at most stops, you can feel the bump. I canāt think this is ānormal behavior.ā If it is, Iām leaving Ford. I couldnāt get my Bronco in for service until October, but if I can get someone to ride with me, I guarantee they will notice. Iāll drive...

Itās the 2.7 and I am familiar with that rattly sound. This is very short lived and sounds like a thin plate rattling. Maybe 1-2 seconds, then it may do it again within a few seconds, then goes away (as far as I can tell).
It isnāt the end of the world, but itās a sickening feeling. I love almost everything else about this remakeā¦. I will get away from Ford if they donāt resolve this. I also have a rattle right after I start the truck. Doesnāt seem to matter if itās cold or not. Almost sounds like something...
I think this ābumpā may gradually get worse. I also think you are correct. It isnāt necessarily a function of accelerating, per the gas pedal, but that first movement once the brake is released. Itās just inconsistent. Doesnāt happen every time. I hate an intermittent problem. š¤¦š». Thanks...
I have a ā23 Wildtrak, 4-door with 3,800 miles. Iāve recently started feeling a slight ābumpā as I take off after coming to a stop. I canāt diagnose this and though itās not terrible YET, Iām afraid this will progressively become more pronounced as time goes on. Iāve never had this thing in...
