Strange noise in 2010 ford edge passenger dash area?
I have a 2010 Ford EDGE SEL. Its a great car but recently, it has been making this terribly annoying rattling sound coming from beneath the dash on the passenger's side. It is coming from right where the bottom of the windshield meets the dash area. I can't figure out what is making the sound. I even wend beneath the dash to feel around, but couldn't find any loose parts. It sounds like something loose and rattling around. Every small bump or even the bass from my sub woofer makes it rattle. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue?
Sounds like that sometimes appear to come from somewhere where in fact they come from a different place altogether. I had a rattle seemingly coming from the console between the seats which I couldn't trace for the life of me. When I removed a cd case from the glove box some distance away the sound disappeared immediately…
Based on my experience, I suggest you take everything out of the car, emptying the glovebox, door pockets, storage nooks, shelves etc. Entirely and see if that makes a difference.
If i had this complaint brought to me, the first things id do would to be remove all things from the car (as stated by champer) if the vibrations happens while stationary (i.e. Speaker sounds causing the vibrations) check all the plastic inside the car, and also check around the engine bay for loose bolts, nuts, parts. However if it happens while moving the car (you mentioned the small bumps causing it) i would be checking tire pressure, tire tread depth (tread depth gauges are super cheap, unless the tire is obviously wearing unevenly) and see if all 4 grooves in the tires (each tire) are all evenly deep, then move on to your front suspension parts to check for everything being in correct place, all of this can be done in a few minuets in your driveway, just a quick look over everything, no actual mechanical work needed
I recommend taking your Edge to a Ford Dealer to be properly diagnosed. Ask to speak with the service manager. He'll be in the best position to look into what is actually causing the noise, and advise the next steps.

- Rattling noise coming from passenger side possibly engine when going up steep hills, for ranger? I ave a 2007 ford ranger and recently when going up hills there has been a rattling noise that seems to come from the passenger side towards the engine or front of the truck. What could cause this? I also recently had an oil change, and they put 5w30 in instead of the recommended 5w20, could any of this be a cause?
- 2001 Ford Ranger clicks once then won't turn over, and when key is turned off, it begins making a clicking relay noise under the dash? - 1 I've had this happen before, and the last couple times I just undid the battery and put it back in and it started right up. The battery has a charge, the alternator is new, and I tried jumping the battery just in case. So I know it's not that. I'm thinking it could be something in the ignition switch because sometimes I have to lift up on the shifter knob for it to register that it's in park and turn over. Any ideas?
- 2016 Ford Mustang GT strange underbody noise? There's a noise from underbody I can't diagnose. It doesn't matter if the car s cold or warmed up, it's there no matter when you start it. Please see following videos;
- What is that noise coming from the passenger side of my 2014 Ford Focus st? I'm hearing a metallic rubbing sound coming from the passenger side. Almost like an air leak, but more of a light metal rubbing. But I guess it could be anything. Louder with higher acceleration. Not related to wheel speed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
