I've had my Lightning for just over two weeks now and have noticed the same issue. At higher speeds I notice a flapping and clapping sound. If I push on the driver side window it will go away. Has anyone had any luck getting a solution? Thanks
Hey there! If you send over a DM with your VIN and Ford dealer info, I can look into your concerns on my end.

@Lucasw. I took my truck to dealership and they are looking at it but seems hard to duplicate it but glad I made the video. No fix yet. I did open a case with Ford also as was suggested.

Your video was great! I actually showed it to the techs yesterday but, like you said, they weren't able to duplicate it. Of course, I heard it on my drive home 😔. I've learned I can roll the window down then up a few times and it will stop.

Latest Status…local Ford Service is refusing to contact Ford corporate engineers with out the local Ford service being able to duplicate this intermittent probe. Even though they have the video that they could send engineers and at least pick their brain on the problem.

update,
Had truck back for over a week now and no more flapping. The inner window top run insulation was replaced on both front windows. The shop foreman admitted it’s a known f150 issue.

Hi there, I'd be happy to look into your Lightning concerns on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into things on my end.

Did this fix your issue, and do you have a part number?
