Window Pulsating Noise
Who all have the Driver side window pulsating noise while driving 40mph+?
Anybody got it fixed? If so, how?
My dealer can't seem to fix it, they're idiots.
I also got a noise in the rear passenger side interior quarter panel. (something like a washer is lose or like coins banging together when i hit bumps or when im driving on bumpy roads).
The dealer wasn't able to fix that either. Anybody else have had these 2 issues?
Any help/advice/opinion would be appreciated!

Are you talking about pulsation with the window down? If so just crack the other window. This phenomenon happens with most cars these days and cracking another window takes care of it.

The pulsating is most likely caused by the window not being fully closed into the weather stripping. I had this problem in my 2011 GT/CS. A simple adjustment by the dealer. Find another dealer. The noise in the rear passenger area is common, I have it, occasionally. It does seem to based on weather/ temperature changes. Do a search as I recall seeing where someone took all the panels off and showed where to place insulating material to stop all rattles and squeaks in the 2015+ interior, including the dash.

sounds like the pulsating noise is coming from the door latch.
i had that replaced by the dealership, but the noise doubled after that.
im gonna get some camper tape and put in on the rear quarter panel which is rattling. see if that helps.
im surprised nobody else has the pulsating noise from the driver side door. Seemed like a known issue on the facebook community.

Anybody resolved this issue?
I took my car to another ford dealer and they said that the driver door isn't aligned properly. They didn't have a body shop to take care of it. So i still have the issue.
Is that really what's causing it? or the weather stripping? The stripping looks fine, but then again i could be wrong as hell.

Are you referring to the buffeting at the window when it is down, at speeds over 50? If so there is nothing that can be done. It is a causal relationship to between the speed of the car and the aerodynamics of the vehicle. There is nothing you can do as almost all vehicles do this! do you drive with your seat belt on? Is the noise coming from the left or right side? I had the same noise and it was traced to the passenger seat belt buckle knocking against the door trim when not in use.

No, im talking about when the driver side window is all the way shut. I mean it's not normal. It's perfectly fine when the window is down slightly or all the way.

IceD, sorry I misunderstood. I was thinking it was happening when the window was down. So no, that's not normal. Mine is quiet as a church mouse when the window is up. Good luck.
