rding

Any luck Gerrett? i had mine checked a week ago and they changed RDU claiming they found a matching Ford article about the same problem. It was a miss. Brushing noise returned intermittently. The chattering noise has gone so wild to the point that i can't tolerate. It's persistently distracting like hell. Yet dealer claim they heard NOTHING. Will bring it in two weeks again. My gut feeling we're heading to a dead end.

i seem to remember someone had this issue and it turned out to be wheel bearing worn out. Good luck with find it out.

No i have not. The difficulty is that when i scheduled a dealer visit two weeks in advanced that's usually when the problem was just on set. By the time the appointment is near or due the freaking issue disappeared. Ford service mode really requires any problem that must be persistent for at least 2 wks. Lately the brushing noise seemed to morphed into an annoying full car shattering and "mouse clicking", not very loud but audible enough to be distracting. if you have any idea plz let me know.

thanks for the idea. it will be hard for me to get under the car. My dealer once looked at it but didn't find anything wrong. At best they guessed there might be a loose piece of plastic cover so they replaced it. But the noise still exist.

I bought a new Ford Edge Sport (2.7 L EcoBoost) for less than a year. Currently it is only about 7k mileage on it. two month back I started to hear brushing noise coming out of my rear right underneath the car. It sounded a brush constantly touch the metal with occasional slight clickings. The noise is audible when going over 40 mph and would disappear when slowing down to 35-40 mph. On highway it sounds louder. what has frustrated me is it does not happen all the time. it went away for about a month before recurring. So to sum up, the noise - goes on intermittently - doesn't relate to weather/temperature changes - does not occur under 35 mph - once it's on it's continuous until dropping speed to below 35 mph. When speeding up again it returns. Can someone point me to what could be causing this noise? I scheduled a service checkup but am worried the problem may not be reproducible at dealer shop. thanks.
