noisy car doors

Hello. My car doors make noises only when I go over bumps, potholes, and road flaws. I have a 2005 Ford Escape XLT 4x4. What could be the cause of the door noises? Please advise.

what type of noise do you hear, is it a rattling sound like something is broken or does it sound like something may be loose

It's hard to explain, but the noise is almost like a shifting or settling noise many times accompanied by squeaking and it only is heard when going over bumps or imperfections in road. The noises have seemed to come from all doors, but mostly I've heard it more in the drivers side door and in the right hand back passengers door.

The noises have seemto come from all doors at one time or another, but mostly I've heard it more in the drivers side door and in the right hand back passengers door. Any clues what it might be causing this?

It's hard to describe noises sometimes. A couple things you could do is oil or spray grease the hinges and latch mechinisms which everyone should do no and then, and the other possiblility is noise from the rubber seals for the doors and I think something like ArmorAll or similar product could rule that out. The car does torque some which is normal and that rubber noise could be kind of like running your finger (wet) across) glass like thing going on here?? T

Hmmm... This is a pretty new car 2005, it really should be a nice quiet ride. Have you brought it to the dealer to have them look at this, since it should be under some type of warranty.
