I started to notice a slight rattle in the panoramic Vista roof on our 2018 Exp Platinum MAX 4x4 at around 7000 miles on the odometer. The rattle has since grown to be much louder and frequent. While at the dealer last week, they were able to replicate it but couldn't isolate it. They greased the rubber seals around the glass but the issue has only gotten worse.
The rattle is only present with the sunroof glass closed. The rattle is not present with the sunroof open, or in the vent position.
Upon searching, there are numerous topics around F-150 Vista sunroof rattles. Some point to greasing the rubber seals around glass (done that). Others point to metal clips that hold up the rear, fixed panel. However, upon looking at this issue closer, the clips they use on the F-150 are different than the ones on the Expy.
Just thought I'd share because something tells me others with the Vista roof will soon begin noticing the same issue.
Other than that, the truck has been absolutely great. Hauled a family of 7 last weekend 1200 miles roundtrip to Montreal and back and everyone complimented the comfort, comparing it to a jetliner.
