Popping Sound

My Lincoln MKC has a popping sound in rear cargo area when I turn my car on. It doesn’t do it every time. Very annoying when you take it to the dealership and it doesn’t do it. It sounds like it’s a speaker, but when everything is turned off it will still do it.

I had the same noise. I was told by the dealer it was the subwoofer. Nothing to worry about. Mine did not do it all the time either.
I can echo what jeepwhite1 said...I was also told it was the subwoofer and nothing to worry about...

we have a 2017 MKX and I’ve noticed this same issue. It sounds electrical through a speaker sound almost it’s very odd. Turned radio off and still would hear it once in awhile. It’s not continuous. Please if anyone finds out let us know. Thanks
Make sure it's not water leaking on your subwoofer amplifier from the rear seat belt just above it.

I have a 2016 MKZ and I have the same problem however it’s is now louder and comes on when I turn on the car and continues after the car is turned off. It has made the sound so loud it has started me and my family. I Have turned the sound system off and it still continues. I’am afraid the car will catch on electronic fire that how bad it’s gotten.
My Lincoln MKZ has a loud popping sound in rear cargo area when I turn my car on. I have disconnected my cell and turn the sound system off and it still has that loud sound. At one point i was driving and it startled
Me and my family as we were in the road. I’am not sure what it can be since it makes the loud sound when I turn the car off as well. I’am afraid it might cause an electrical fire. It started doing this all the time even when I turn the car on with no radio on.
I figured it out. It is a bad radio, I was not expecting that. I tried to flash a firmware update to the radio and it became unresponsive. I replaced the radio and it does not pop anymore when I start my car.
My 2019 MKC started do that today, very loud and annoying. I drove straight to the dealership maintenance dept and they got to hear it. Supposed to take it back tomorrow so they can troubleshoot the issue.

My 2017 mic makes this noise coming from the rear passenger area for about 2-3 seconds only when starting engine. Have you got your problem resolved?
Post #9. Mine was a bad radio
