Brand new, 2022 Bronco Sport sounds

Crunching, scraping, fluttering — and no bulletin for 2022s to fix it. What a nightmare purchase…

I sort of have a sound like that when I accelerate. Coming from the left side just in front of the driver. Hum

Mine was quiet when I bought it then after maybe 500 miles a metallic like sound seemed like coming out of driver side AC vent. Sound would muffle if I put hand over AC vent on left of steering wheel Sound only there when foot on the gas just keeping up with traffic. But after about 1400 miles started to get quiet now does not make noise any more at 1800 miles. Last couple times out I listen and it quiet smooth noise went away. Right now mine has no noises of any kind just silky smooth drives great.

When mine made noise it reminded me of a hamster running on an exercise wheel. My kids had hamsters years ago and those exercise wheels made a scraping squeaking metallic sound when rodents would run on them.

My wife drives the sport most of time she never noticed any noise. But when it was there very noticable to me and didn't seem normal at all. And I have owned lots of turbo vehicles.

Maybe look at online reviews of dealers see if you can find one that has good reviews. A lot of dealers very bad service but some dealers, not many, have talent to repair.

Disconnecting Park Release Cable on top of transmission if noise goes away you found the problem.
