I listen to a lot of audible books when I drive. The last two weeks or so, I've been getting a buzzing sound coming from the center channel around the narration. It happens at all volume ranges and seems to get worse the longer it goes. Normally, I would attribute this to a blown speaker, but all types of music at all volumes sound perfect. Since I have zero clue as to why this is happening, I'm hoping someone can offer a solution.

Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? I’d like to look into this concern on my end.

Did you ever determine the issue? I have the exact same problem. It started about 2 weeks ago.
Hey there! I can look into your Mach-E’s noise concerns on my end if you’d like. Will you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info?

I'm also getting this issue on my Job 1 Premium. At first I thought it was related to the SSM 50739 and had service done related, but it wasn't fixed. Later I realized I should test via the balance function and narrowed down to a blown out center-front speaker.

Now that I'm seeing others have the same, I'll be DMing @Ford Motor Company my details.

1) Buy the speaker from Ford and replace it yourself. 2) Buy an aftermarket speaker and replace it yourself. 3) Make an appointment when you have time and have it covered by warranty.

Just had this happen today on the very first drive after PowerUp 3.6.1 installed. Related? Maybe, maybe not. But certainly suspicious considering all the other problems the recent updates have caused my car.

Hello! Send us a private message with your VIN and the name and location of your local Ford dealer. I’d be happy to see what I can do to assist with this noise concern on your Mach-E. Thanks!

Did you find a fix for this? I think it happened to us too.

Same question as many others have posted, has a solution to this been found? Just bought a Mach-E and as I'm driving it off the lot, I notice I too have the blown front speaker.
Seems like there are enough of us with the same issue that maybe a recall is in order...

I too have a blown front center speaker.
Should be warranty work.

My '22 Premium just started doing the same thing, and like yours, it's most noticeable during audible conversations (talk radio), but not really noticeable when listening to music. Did you ever get a solution?

Thanks

Due to supply chain issues, it took a few weeks for the speaker to arrive, but my dealership took care of everything.
