Is any one else encountering their air pod pros rattling noice when using the transparency or noise cancellation mode when they are walking or running ? I don't get any rattling when I don't have any mode engaged. And I'm on the latest firmware.

I've had to replace both of my AirPod Pros, at different times. I wouldn't describe the sound as rattling, it was more of a buzz. I haven't seen that exact complaint here at iMore, but I have read elsewhere that it is a known common failure.

Both times, Apple replaced them at no charge. My warranty runs out in November, however, so I am concerned about another failure.

I had to take mine in for this similar issue. They replaced them with a refurbished set. I was told I would get a "new" pair. Since I am COMPLETELY grossed out thinking these have been in someone elses' ear that I haven't touched them. The case was all scratched up and very obviously not a new set. Ewww.
