Hello, I have had my 2020 fusion since last year. I bought it certified pre-owned and I noticed a rattle coming from passenger side/rear trunk area. The car has 32,000 miles and I was hoping to have the forum take a listen and tell me their thoughts. Im not sure how to describe it to the dealer and they have said to put silicone lubricant around the trunk area and that has not really done anything to mitigate the issue. I attached two videos and look forward to your thoughts.
cheers,

I just picked that one at random, but make sure your kit is complete with the tool and the liquid.
DO NO use stop leak if there is a head gasket leak. It won't help much and will likely accelerate the failure.
The good news is that you have a 2020. Ford updated the design for 2020 to remedy the widespread coolant intrusion between cyls. 2&3 issue that plagued their 4cylinder EB engines. That said, I agree that you need to look further into this. If it's not consuming coolant, it could be something else, although I can't imagine what. IDK if the newer coolants emit the same smell as the traditional green-colored ones.
They tend to leak coolant into the combustion chambers more than into the crankcase, that's why you can smell it.
It doesn't take expensive testing to rule out a possible headgasket leak. No other fluid smells sweet when burnt, that's why I think you need to focus there.
