I've owned a 2011 6cyl edge and a 2015 ecoboost 4cyl edge. Both had this sound but nothing ever failed. Wondering if you guys have heard it and what the heck is it? When in a stand still and give it a little gas  let's say a normal stop and go stop sign scenario.... You hear a "Tap" sound. I noticed it's also sounds when the auto tranny switches gears to 2nd but you don't hear it on the other gears. I personally hear it at take off all the time and sometimes when coming to stop and you feel the tranny drop to 2nd or first gear. It's always a audible "Tap" sound. Both my cars do it. Anyone else know what the heck I'm talking about?

That's actually been discussed here before. Please read this post and if it sounds familiar:

Thanks for the link. That might be what I'm hearing. Just glad it's that and not a tranny about to go!  Can it be left alone in your opinion? I remember my old 2011 did it forever and never really got past that tik noise.

If it was my car, I'd run it by the dealer and have a mechanic have a look. May be nothing but whatever it is, it doesn't appear to be a common complaint and therefore a possible problem. Could be nothing more than a simple fix .

 

If it is the problem that fell under the recall, wouldn't cost anything to repair.
