Some Ford Flex owners report experiencing a rattling noise in the dashboard that worsens at higher speeds, often attributed to loose parts vibrating against each other. This issue can create a noticeable sound and may indicate serious underlying problems if not addressed promptly. Additionally, some owners find that loose or damaged heat shields can contribute to the rattling noises. Repairing these heat shields, which are a common source of the issue, can cost between $50 and $300 depending on the extent of the damage. It is crucial for owners to inspect and secure any loose parts and check the condition of heat shields, and to seek professional assistance if necessary to diagnose and resolve the problem effectively.
