Sunroof Noise

Ever since I bought my truck, I have noticed that the sunroof makes quite a bit of noise when closed. It doesn't seem to fit tightly and it "bounces" making a repetitive thud sound when I hit any sort of bump. I either have to turn the music up, or open the sunroof to stop it… there is no way this is normal.

Anyone else heard of this?

Have you replicated the bounce and noise for your dealer, trmitzne? I'd like to alert your regional customer service manager so they can help. Once they have your info, they'll work with your dealership on getting these concerns resolved. To proceed, send a PM my way with your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, current mileage, and servicing dealership. Leave the rest to me.

Wonder if you have the same issue as OgRedd. Turned out to be his sunroof that was making the noise. See his thread:

Right. Needs to be a TSB issued. Seems to be a common occurrence. See here: http://www.f150forum.com/f118/knocki...298438/index5/

Welcome to the forum, Jeff. How many miles are on your truck? I'll see what I can do to get that squeak to disappear for good. Additionally, you can check on any recalls that would apply to your vehicle by entering the VIN here: https://owner.ford.com/tools/account...e/recalls.html

I have the same problem with my new F 150. The sunroof rattles on the one side , passenger side ! Any time you go a small bump in the road . It wasn't bad a first. Has got a lot worse in the last few weeks . Has been to Dealer, they are not sure what it is , but they do hear it. It went in for 2 days , just got it back from dealer .... almost all gone but can still hear it , just like when it 1st started. They said they took the glass out of another new truck on the lot and swapped them . Said it was fixed.... not sure about that . Time will tell Truck is only 4 months old .

Hi captainal,

Welcome to the site! Did you let your dealer know that the rattle is still there? How many miles are on the truck? I'm here to help.

Thank you for all of the info.

My issue is still not resolved and the Dealer now wants to send the truck to a collision centre to have them look at it.

Truck has 7000 miles on it.
I would not classify the noise as a rattle. Its more of a rubbing , clunking noise. only does it when roof is closed. when opened and re closed it goes away for a very short time then starts again. Winter is here so its always closed and is very disappointing.

This will be my last sunroof .......
