Can you tell where the sound is coming from. Front or back?
Aren't those turbo charged? you think the turbo is suspect?
has the truck ever been towed?
i will ask my buddy,30 yr ford tech ,if he has seen similar.
Hillbilly, yes my truck was towed for about 30 miles when the truck had 400 miles on the ODO! Truck engine failed due to what Ford said was a faulty wiring harness to the EFI. Truck has basically never run right since!!
Yes, I agree the EcoBoost is a piece of shit! The engine/turbo has a intermittent LOOOONG delay during acceleration. Press down on the gas pedal and some times the truck doesn't accelerate. Have to let off the gas pedal and try again and then it takes off after a 2-4 second delay. Almost been rear ended on the freeway as it's hesitated many times.
I also currently have a annoying air noise leak from the front passenger door. 1st time Ford didn't fix it, they said no problem found! Drove it away and the noise was still present, turned around and gave it back to them! 2nd time they replaced the main door seal. Got it back and doing over 70mph the noise is still present! Going back again for a 3rd attempt for Ford to fix it!
California Lemon Law states 4 consecutive problems of the same identical problem and non resolution.
I've already tried pursuing that Ford buy back my truck. As it's been in the shop multiple times. But Ford is the worst to work with, they just deflect everything. Having a helluva time!
The Shop
The Ford certified mechanics I have and am currently dealing with are total morons! Their Service Director is even worse!
i've had two issues with mine. one the drive was slipping when moving from a stop to 5mph. Ford took care of it. the other was one of my spark plug's ceramic cracked while towing, another known issue with the Ecoboost of which Ford took care of.
other than that I've had my 12 since summer of '12 and the truck has been perfect. bummer you hate your's.
At least yours is warning you.

240,000 miles with zero issues.
Not zero, actually, I had to replace the alternator recently.
Piece of shit alternator only lasted a couple hundred thousand miles.
I certainly don't blame you for moving on.
