Squeaks and rattles HELP!
I am having some trouble with the old F-250... I am having some issues with a terrible squeak in the dash when I go over a bump and there are rattles that are driving me crazy! I took it to the dealer and got the "I don't hear it" excuse... I demonstrated it to him even and then I got the ol' "Thats normal" excuse. It didn't do it when it was brand new and now that it has 8,000 miles on it, they are getting worse. I just want them to stop, I have been complaining about them since it had 3k on the odometer, and they won't fix them. Anyone else having these troubles? If there is a Ford engineer running around please please help me. This is a nearly $60k truck I don't use it off road, shouldn't it wait a little longer to start making all these noises at me? Any ideas?

Take a video of it, post it on here...

I will when I return home... All I have is my Droid, I don't know how sensitive the mic is, but I will try it for sure!!

Yea, Mines got a rattle on the passenger side when hitting small bumps like on a gravel road.. I have cleared all the "junk" out of the door pockets as well as the glovebox to see if is that making the noise & it's still there..
Next I am gonna take off the door panel & make sure all is tight.. but it actually seems a little further forward like under the dash.. or maybe up under the floorpan near the firewall.. Yea - it real aggravating - with only 15K, but I cannot blame Ford totally because the roads I drive tend to loosen things up ...:-X19 |
I have that one, plus the squeak in the dash... I don't drive any terrible roads, it has mostly seen I-20 and other well paved roads. I don't know why it is doing it or how to get it solved. I've called Ford for problems, and I always get the same answer, take it to another dealer.... I don't have any other dealers to go to. I just want it to be fixed.

This is my one major complaint about the truck. I love everything else. My thinking is that a $65,000 truck shouldn't be making these noises when it is new.

I have some sort of rattle in mine as well. I only have 900 miles on the truck and it driving me crazy. I am still trying to find the source before I take it to the dealership. Seems to be coming from the middle part of the dash.

I have a rattle in the middle of my dash, sounds as if behind the radio.
It shows up around 1,100 RPM so mostly when I'm driving in/out of my subdivision. |
I got one too, mine sounds like its the mirror on the drivers side but I am not definite. I have 800 miles on the truck.

Sheesh...my 05 with 130K on it had ZERO rattles/noises in it... Maybe I should have kept it? :)

Same here, behind the radio. Sounds like a small marble rolling around to me. My driver's door squeaks and tweaks to as the truck flexes over bumps and such. Annoying as hell.

I think it's coming from the top of dash storage bin. If I apply downward pressure to the bin Thingy it goes away! These trucks should NOT rattling or squeaking! It's really annoying.
