Buzzing/rattling sound around the front section of the sunroof? One possible FIX

[gcbroncosport]

Discussed in a post about the myriad BS interior rattles. Creating standalone thread to help folks find the fix easier (especially since Ford Dealer Network avoids helping with these issues).

The Rattle (kind of a buzzing sound, at speeds 35+ mph):

The Fix (super glue, but hard to say how long that will hold up):

Buzzing caused by the front rubber seal for the sunroof coming loose. Don't have pic of seal detached, but it is highlighted in pic below. Sunroof glass presses down against the seal which is glued on its side. This effectively pulls it away from the glue/front panel (eventually).

Seal was about 1/3 detached when finally determined it caused the buzzing sound. Perhaps just a bad batch of glue on the day the BS was assembled!

A heartfelt thanks to the Ford Dealer Network that has been of NO HELP in addressing the BS RATTLES.

Thank you for this. My sunroof started buzzing very loudly today above 30 mph getting really loud at 40+. I'll try to glue this back together. I want to avoid the freaking dealer which has also been of NO HELP to me at all for the other issues I have. I even made an appointment to get all of my issues addressed, and when I got there, they said that they only had one tech on duty that day and no one would help me.

I have this same issue just as of the last three or four days. Starts up around 37/38 mph.
If anyone has any additional pictures of the issue, it would be good to see so I can determine the path forward.

I had the same happen to my 2021 BB with about 25K miles on it which started the other day. Around 35 to 50 MPH is when I get the resonance. This is very annoying. I will need to take a look at the seal that you mentioned.

I finally took mine to the dealer and indeed it was a detached seal, which they replaced.
