Chirp at acceleration from stop

[forumx2]

I came back from a Sedona trip over the weekend and on the way down noticed a chirping noise which sounds like it's coming from the mid to rear passenger side. It only happens when the truck is accelerating from a complete stop. It chirps twice then stops after the truck is past 10mph+.

Has anyone else experienced this on a '13? I was reading through the thread for the TSP on the 2011 having the rear end clunk/chrip/thud.

Did you clip a bird on your way back from Sedona, forumx2?

Seriously though, since it sounds like you can replicate this pretty easily, I'd get this into the hands of your dealer. Take your tech on a test drive and demonstrate it for them; that'll help them as they work on a diagnosis. What's the current mileage on the truck?

Haha! I checked, no birds!

I made an appointment with the dealer for this week. Just wondering if I could get a better idea of what it might be before I took it in. I have about 29k miles on it.

LOL! Understood, forumx2; hopefully some other folks will chime in with some ideas. Let us know if the dealer finds Tweety hiding out.

It's your tires, ease into the throttle, LOL That 6.2 is overpowering the tires. Next problem...

Hahaha! I wish that was the issue! I'd be completely okay with that.

I had a weird sound on takeoff that Ford was not able to diagnose. Odds are this is your issue:

Thanks to Chris at Freedom Motorsports I fixed it myself in less than an hour. Ford only states this as a bump but I only ever had a sound and no bump.
