Weird buzzing/grinding noise is when letting off the gas and also when I slowly accelerate I hear it too.

Hey does anybody have any clue what this weird buzzing/grinding noise is that I hear when I’m at a lower speed and I let off the gas? I also here it at the beginning of acceleration but it then disappears once at a higher rate of speed

Do you have a 2021 or 2022 model?

It’s possible the sound is coming from this issue, read it over and compare the description to the noise you hear:

Manual Park Release Cable:

This cable runs from transmission by air filter box, under battery, through firewall, then to lower left hand dash. Hoses on top of transmission make the park release cable hard to see.

SSM 51184
2020-2022 Escape/Corsair, 2021-2022 Bronco Sport - Hiss Or Rattle Noise While Driving - Manual Park Release Cable Some 2020-2022 Escape/Corsair vehicles built on or before 17-May-2022 and 2021-2022 Bronco Sport vehicles built on or before 25-Feb-2022 may exhibit a hiss or rattle noise while driving. This may be due to an internal issue with the manual park release cable. If the noise is eliminated when the cable is disconnected from the transmission, install a new manual park release cable assembly LX6Z-7D246-T. Refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 307-05 > Automatic Transmission
External Controls > Removal and Installation.

Also:
Noise is very noticeable around 25mph:
SSM 50274 - 2021 Bronco Sport - Hiss Or Rattle Noise While Driving - Manual Park Release Cable. Some 2021 Bronco Sport vehicles may exhibit a hiss or rattle noise while driving. This may be due to an internal issue with the manual park release cable. If the noise is eliminated when the cable is disconnected from the transmission, install a revised manual park release cable part number LX6Z-7D246-S following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 307-05.
