We have another thread going as well with the same issues. Did the dealer ever get you up and running with a fix?
Which thread please? If you are referring to "Anyone Familiar With This Noise", it isn't quite the same issue.
I have a 2018 ford explorer with 109,000 miles and the video posted is the exact noise I have . I drive 10 minutes, it make the noise for about 30 seconds and then stops. In the front end. It only happens when the vehicle has been sitting for a while (overnight and the 8 hours while I’m at work). Doesn’t do it if you drive off and on all day, just the first start up. Brakes are fine, not turning when it happens, mostly on a straight course. I guess I’ll bring it to the mechanic but was hoping someone had the same issue and has had it fixed.Intermittent, high pitched squeal, front end 2015 LTD
Help! Hello! Intermittent front end squeal while driving. Have replaced belt, tensioner, pulley. Not AC related. Not brake related. Not speed related, although it stops when my car is almost at a stop. Noise starts at about 4-5 miles after starting morning drive, and is random after that...www.explorerforum.com
Some say half shaft/cv with the carrier bearing. I haven’t diagnosed mine yet as the noise just came back as it goes away when the temps are warm for me. I’m going to have the dealer specifically look at the cv with the carrier bearing and will report back.
Replacing the half shaft did resolve the issue
My squeal symptoms were identical to yours and replacing the front pax half shaft solved the problem
