Re: Creaking Sound
If you don't want to mess around with dealers and don't mind a "quick fix"... I just pulled the cover in the trunk and used a screwdriver to bend the "plate" back a little. Haven't heard any creaking since and no more spot weld to break again.

Re: Creaking Sound
Where and what do you need to bend or weld. I tried looking at the links for pictures in this thread, and none of the pictures are showing up, just red x's.

Re: Creaking Sound
Hey guy's, I took a video, figured I would let you guys hear it for yourselves.
Maybe you can figure the crak out for me, Around 9 and 15 seconds is the best you can hear it, My camera sucks. Right rear rattle |

Re: Creaking Sound
Do you guys think that the ford dealership will fix this problem for free. If not how much?

Re: Creaking Sound
I have a creak on the passenger side now and I will check my trunk. I have sub frames and rear strut brace so my car is solid which I think adds to the sound.

Re: Creaking Sound
I see what you guys are talking about. I pushed on that area doesn't really feel loose, although this is what the dealer said in how they would fix it "remove the trunk trim, reweld shock tower to package tray, and repaint the tower." Is that the same area? I'll try to bend that piece a little and see if the noise goes away.

Re: Creaking Sound
I tried to mess with it, but I can't find it. I'm just gonna take it in tommorow to a body shop. And now I'm getting a noise from the right . I'm sick of this car and all the problems

Re: Creaking Sound
I have the same noise coming from the same area on the passenger side. I was wondering if maybe some sheet metal screws would fix it? Without, of course, screwing them through the fender well. ???

Re: Creaking Sound
Great Thread this, had the same annoying sound and yes pulled back the carpet in boot, fixed mine with some cable ties jammed in and taped up, no more creaking and squeaking.
