Thank you for the information. Mississippi's lemon law talks about safety, diminished value, lack of repairs in three attempts, cumulative 15 days in the shop, and attorney's fees. They have offered extended oil changes and tire rotation. I didn't take them. My contract has an arbitration clause too. I really like the car and wonder if other vehicles could have the same issue and folks are not listening for that with all the extraneous noises that are inherent with kids, AC, speed, and radio. So stay tuned.

I want to close out this thread. FMC bought my 2025 Expedition back and I bought a new 2026 Expedition. I was told the vehicle was sent back to the factory for examination and I would probably never know the results of their examination. Everyone at FMC and the dealer were helpful and professional. Thanks everyone for the interest.
I got the same trim and options except the sun/moon/vista roof. Had one on my last two and hardly ever used them. Vehicle seems tighter and no rattles so far. I hate FMC is having all the recalls and quality issues. Hope they can figure out a method to ensure quality control soon. I like Ford vehicles. The buyback agent and the dealer personnel were very helpful. Willie
Yeah, ours feels the same way. My wife doesn't notice or complain so I haven't pounced on it, yet, but it is irritating.
The vehicle doesn't feel as tight as our '18 that we traded in and that bothers me, but what are you going to do. Guess I could switch to a Tahoe and deal with another can of worms.
Has anyone gotten a resolution to the "rattly" feeling in the steering wheel, or the audible rattly-ness in the front end?

I had my 25 in the shop about 60 days of the 5 months I had it. The head mechanic and line mechanic heard the noise, the RF strut was replaced, the undershield was removed, and the noise still was there. I noticed it about 1200 miles driving in my pasture, smoother than alot of roads around here. Anyway I had my window down and radio off going about 10 MPH and it sounded like a loose grill, shock, hubcap, or muffler. They were all checked. They even put some acoustics under the car to pinpoint the noise but was unable to replicate it. They would not let me drive it during that test. Anyway, I put in a claim with FMC and received the buyback offer after about a month. I really don't think drivers are listening for that type of noise. We all ride with our windows up and radios blaring. I could hear the noise with the radio and AC off at about 10-14 MPH on a rough road.
I think if more folks reported it they would find a solution- good luck.
