I am experiencing a rattle from the steering column area when going over uneven and rough roads I have checked to see if anything loose around the steering wheel but nothing anyone had the same? It's getting worse and I'm out of warranty now😫

There is a known issue with the incorrect size bolts securing the steering column on some pumas. You need to take it to a Ford garage who should know exactly what the problem is or you should take it to an independent garage and point them in the direction of the securing bolts

Mine is off in to resolve a light clonking / clunking. Pretty sure it's subframe or rear engine or trans mount. I'm not remotely concerned though. Teething issues and all under warranty. Dealer dead easy to deal with about it.

So no joy. Noise vanished but I did find the other rattle, seat adjustment bar on the passenger seat was jangling. Moved the seat back a few notches and boom - silence again.
