I just signed up for this forum because of this noise issue to see if anyone found a solution. I guess not. I will mention though, that I have had this problem since I first bought. Happened after I traveled from upstate NY to Virginia Beach.
Dealer said something you have to live with.
I have since moved south and still think it is humidity related.
Last time at dealers, the woman said she was going to try to find answers for it.
Not much mileage left on 36k warranty so would like to get resolved so I can move onto the next issue.
Water dripping on my gas pedal foot! Assume condensation from AC on long drive up north.

I have the 2021 Sport - Not only do I have the obnoxious brake sound in reverse, I also have the recall that I have been waiting on part for over 3 months, I have had to replace the front tire flap, the battery and the water pump. But the latest issue is what I will describe as exhaust noise - The car is so noisy, I took it to Ford 2 times - they said it's normal - but I disagree. I have driven this car for 30K miles before it started and I can tell the difference between what it sounded like before and what it sounds like now. 3 mechanics (2 at Ford) have all agreed that they "hear' what I am hearing but the 2 mechanics at Ford have decided it's normal. If I wanted something that sounded like a 73 Buick, I would have bought a 73 Buick. I am also experiencing the sluggish pick up upon acceleration. I am at a my wits end, every time I take the car in they tell me it's normal.. all the way down to smelling the antifreeze during the water pump issue - Not to mention the blast of fog on the windshield when I start it up... I need to figure out how to get these issues resolved without the constant "you're crazy' attitude I get every time I take it in
Sorry to hear - I can relate!

I've just recently gotten lucky -

In May, I had TSB 23-2041 (an updated fix?) completed and the reverse GROAN is gone, so far.

This week, I was able to have the Fuel Injector Recall fix completed at a local LINCOLN dealer which also has A FORD dealership association.

I wish you good luck!

SB did not help mine. My Ford Advisor said there is essentially nothing Ford will do and it happens on more then the Bronco Sport. I have had no less then 7 items (SB or recalls) on this vehicle. Need to look into the lemon laws in Ohio.

Did you have TSB 23-2041 completed on your vehicle?

The number of service bulletins and recalls is not a determinant for Lemon Law eligibility. SBs and recalls are evidence the manufacturer is working to correct problems. The only way one would be relevant in a Lemon Law case is if you had to repeatedly take your car back for the same SB/recall work, or if your car was in the shop for an inordinate amount of time to complete the work.

Like three times for moaning rear brakes. Ford actually offered to buy my Bronco back with 16,000 miles on it for just 3 things. I didn't want to at the time but wish I did now. Trading it in.

Sure did. Ford service claims it happens on many models.

Wish Ford would offer to buy mine back.
