Steering wheel buzz

My steering wheel has a "buzz" when truck is stopped. Sort of like a high frequency buzz. It is minor but wasn't there a week ago. Once I start to move the buzz goes away. Truck has 8K miles on it.

Lariat Ultimate package so I'm guessing it has adaptive steering.

Just something to consider but it might be the motor in the steering wheel for the adaptive steering.

Ford dropped adaptive steering starting with model year 2023. OP has a 2024 so I don't think it is the cause.

I thought that feature ended with the 24 model year, appears I am wrong. Not sure what else could “buzz” in there beyond the control buttons on the wheel

There is still a motor on the steering wheel for the lane keep assist.

I have a 2024 XLT, no adaptive or lane keep assist. I have the same buzz. If I turn the wheel while stopped the buzzing stops and then starts again once the wheel is stationary.

Interesting others share the same issue. At this point in time not going to worry about it and see if it gets worse or stops.

Used to happen on my 2018. Dealer nerve found an issue or code. Traded it with 45k miles and no other issues surfaced.
