Since it's gotten warmer (now over 100 here in AZ) I had a rattle from music develop in the back seat and I decided to finally get out there and try to figure out what it is. I think I found it. It's part of the sliding rear window. The metal track is inside a plastic surround that is vibrating against the metal track. I temporarily put something in there (doesn't affect the window operation) and during testing it helped. Gonna leave it there for a bit and see if it still helps when driving around as well. If that does solve this one I'll think of something more permanent to do.
I thought it was the glass at first as well as putting a little pressure would stop the rattle, then I looked more and found that it was this area. I think pushing the glass just moved the rail enough to limit the contact for me.

Hi there! Will you send us a message with your VIN and your local Ford dealer? I can look into things on my end.
There is a TSB for this. I had it done by the dealer and while it did help, I still get a slight rattle if the rear window is all of the way open. What I do to eliminate the rattle completely is slightly close it just a small amount. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...20381-0001.pdf
