Odd rattle from B pillar highway speeds

[Eastcoastmaverick]

Hey guys,
I have a weird rattle coming from the b pillar at above 40mph, can't pinpoint what it is. Nothing is loose or flopping in the wind. It's almost like the road vibration at the speed causes it. Any one have a similiar issue?

When you say B pillar, which pillar exactly do you mean. Many of us confuse A pillars with C pillars.

Here is a video of the rattle in mine, not sure if related to yours?

Damn, these cars are plagued with rattles. I took mine to the dealership for the front and rear rattles. They fixed the rear one by dropping the headliner and taping a loose cable clip going to the third brake light.

I would just have someone sit in the back seat and start pressing around while you're driving and see if you can narrow it down. If you can't, take it to the dealer. The more we have these rattles documented, the more likely Ford will have a solution to it.

My dash pops and rattles. Has gotten significantly worse around 2000 miles on a Lariat.

Disheartening. Literally falling apart.

Mine sounds exactly the same.

I believe my rattle is solved. It must have been ice build up somewhere. We shall see, but I havent heard it in a week after leaving it in the sun.

Mine rattles everywhere. Is the only thing on this car that sucks. Takes the joy out of the truck, really bad. I am so glad I didn't buy a fully loaded one, would have been super annoying to pay over 35k for a truck which rattles everywhere. Some of the rattle comes and goes. Some is there the entire time. I will have the dealership look into it when I take the truck in for the first oil change. They need to address in the same time the broken sun glasses holder which doesn't close anymore.

Sorry to hear y’all are having issues.

Lariat Lux since 11/03/21. Absolutely no issues, no complaints.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but was this ever pinpointed? I have the windshield squeak and this rattle going on. But mine isn't dependent on speed, it rattles the whole time you are moving. '22 XLT with 1300 miles. Rattles annoy the hell out of me, but I understand they do occur. I am going to take it into the dealer and have them ride with me to hear them, but wanted to know if any of them had been found, so I can tell the dealer kind of where they are coming from.

This rattle was ice for me but another rattle developed and I believe it is the wheel well plastics. The push pins needed to be tightend , specifically the larger ones
