It’s coming from your rear vents.

So it’s not the Helmholtz resonator sound.
its thumping

here’s a weird analogy…
I had a Saturn once, you know plastic body… if that car was dented, you could pop the dent right back …
Now do that a bunch of times. That’s the best I could do to describe the sound.
it’s like there’s air between the headliner and the roof and it’s flexing. It’s not normal.

Hello! I am new to this forum. Just purchased a 2021 and I notice that there is a strange thumping noise inside the car when the drivers window is open, and even when the other windows are open as well. It sounds like the headliner is making noise. Does anyone know what this is and what I could possibly do about it?
Thanks for any help!

Hi there, I'd be happy to look into your Bronco concerns on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into things on my end.

What rear vents/Where are the rear vents located?

Open the hatch, look to your immediate left and right - they look like speaker grilles. Vents are located behind the body panels.

With all the technology that goes into today's vehicles they still can't get rid of this annoying issue. OEM's had a choice, add crash avoidance system or eliminate thumping noise, ha ha

today I was driving and I had Windows rolled down. I heard this noise and thought there was plastic wrap on my roof. Then realized it’s when I drive and wind hitting the ceiling of bronco! The noise started at 20 to 35 mph.
I attempted to capture the noise on a video.

Funny. I am trading my 12-year-old Subaru for a new Bronco.

If I were you, I'd go to the dealer or your mechanic, and have him ride with you to hear the noise.

You will get a call from someone that doesn't know anything about vehicles.

You just need to open another window.........

Sorry, just had to do it.

I've been hearing this thwumping in the rear trunk area ever since I drove the car off the lot. I thought I was imagining things. But it sounds just like air going in and out through the flap of a vent. When driving through some very high winds a few days ago, it was much worse. I came here to research and I'm so relieved to know it's not just me! Whew!! So, stupid query time, what are these vents for?
