Rattle outside front windshield driving me nuts

[Wmflyfisher]

New 23 platinum with BAP. I have a rattle outside of front windshield drivers side that only presents itself above 50mph. Unsure if wind is causing it to be more audible or just the vibration the truck is causing above that speed.

Sounds like it’s coming from near windshield wiper, the hood vent or the side badge. Right outside of the lower corner of windshield. I’ve checked it all and can’t seem to track it down.

Any ideas?

I learned yesterday that there is a recall on the wiper motors. (anyone else hear/know this) I did not see this on my ford pass app. My Ford dealer actually replaced one of the motors yesterday 10-16-23 and said they would call when the other motor came in. May be worth a look see.

Thanks I wasn’t aware will check with dealer next time it’s in.

Figured this one out folks. Front hood bumpers needed adjusting. Noise was coming from there. Once I extended them a bit it is now gone. I’m pumped.

When was this noise most noticeable , during low speed driving ?
