Hopefully one of these guys who’s been in this discussion for awhile has figured it out and can tell us what it could be!

I have had my truck in a few times about the rattle in thee door panel. They have found a wiring harness hitting the panel, the DDM was loose (I didn't know that was in the door). Here is what they found as per work orders
Edit; the rattle is still present...

Dang that’s too bad it’s still present after they tried all of that. Was it the same noise that came back or a different one?I have had my truck in a few times about the rattle in thee door panel.

I’m wondering if my door rattle is from the window regulator. Seems to go away if I crack the window a bit. I’m out of warranty on my ‘22 so I’ll have to investigate it myself when I get around to it, but thanks for posting the items the dealer addressed. I’ll make sure those can’t rattle in the future while I’m in there

It is the same noise. Also, it comes and goes depending on the temp. On a smooth road it is not heard but any sharp, jarring crack in the road, it can be heard. I am still under warranty, so thinking about taking the truck to a different dealer and let them have a shot at it.

I’ve developed the dreaded driver’s door rattle over the past couple of weeks. Seems to be coming from the latch or the lock in the armrest area.
Have been to my local dealer twice just to be told they couldn’t replicate it the first time and that they added padding the second time, which was completely useless. Scheduled an appointment at the dealer I bought it from (two hours away) for Tuesday, but I’m not getting my hopes up.
I really love this truck and would hate to have to sell it, but that will be my only option if @Ford Motor Company doesn’t resolve the issue because the noise is absolutely infuriating, especially in the context of the price of the truck.

Something I noticed today was that if while I am getting the rattle in the door and I put the window down, the rattle stopped. Will dig into this a little deeper. Something to try and post back here.

It seems that the rattle I am hearing is only with the window being up. I put it down and do not hear the noise.

I'll have to try that. Mine is not really a rattle. It's more of a plastic creaking noise.

You guys are describing my issue exactly. I'm getting to be a bit of a broken record but had a couple of replies on these threads below.
FYI (and I didn't mention in other posts) I did try siliconing all the gaskets and rubber to no avail. My noise is exactly a "creak" over undulations or bumpy pavement and definitely a plastic creaking sound. If I crack the window mine stops too.
Doing the fricton tape test now....

So I needed to pull up the trim piece around the window switches to change it out for one where I can install the telescoping switch for my new tow mirrors. What I noticed, the plastic creaking noise where you grab the inner handle of the door is almost all gone. I think it released some stress in that area and when reinstalling, it maintained that relief. So, it might be worth a shot to pull that trim piece up and reinstall to see if it does the same for you.
