2012 5.0 engine knock/rattle on light acceration
i have had my 2012 f150 into the dealer service department twice for an engine knock/rattle condition that happens occasionally during acceleration. The dealer has been unable to hear the noise and help me. It is most noticeable when accelerating at lower speeds. I am worried that i am possibly damaging my engine. has anybody had similar issues with there f150 or would know what this possibly could be? all insight and advice would help, thank you!

Hi Crystal, The truck has 15000 miles on it. I did not drive it when I went on vacation because I was worried about damaging it. The only problem with the truck is that when it is warm it will make a knocking noise under light acceleration. Starting to get very concerned. I would appreciate any help that you could provide. Thanks.

How often does yours make this noise?
I also twice heard an electric motor like noise from the center of the dash. Couldn't tell if it was inside or in the engine compartment. That was with less than 1000 miles and I haven't heard it since.
