:
2006-2007 Front Wheel Drive (FWD) Fusion, Milan, 2007 MKZ vehicles built on or before 8/7/2007 and 2006 Zephyr vehicles may exhibit a customer concern of a rattle/vibration noise perceived to be coming from the console area or under the vehicle.
The rattle/vibration noise is most prominent during windy days where a crosswind is present and commonly occurs at approximate vehicle speeds between 50-70 MPH (80-116 Km/h).
SERVICE PROCEDURE
- Raise the vehicle on a hoist.
- Inspect the heat shield wings positioned in the rear portion of the exhaust shield, above the muffler. (Figure 1)
Figure 1
- Verify that the two (2) wings are not touching the floor pan tunnel (Figure 2). If they are, proceed to Step 4. If not, follow the normal service diagnostic procedures.
Figure 2
