Mustang GT Jingling / rattling / ringing sound when accelerating
I have a 2012 Mustang GT Manual, and when I’m applying any amount of throttle at 2.5k RPM in any gear, I can hear a feint jingling sound coming from the mid/rear passenger side
It sounds like a loose washer, or someone jiggling their keys
Anyone know what’s causing it?

Laser, I remember back in the day when a person working on the assembly line, who didn't get the raise they felt they deserved, would toss a small piece of metal into a section that would get welded and inaccessible without cutting out body parts to find it. I hope that isn't the case. I would first check your passenger side exhaust system. They used to use the exhaust clamps that had the spring around the tightening screw. Sometimes that spring gets loose, or breaks, and a "jingling" sound is produced. Good luck. I hate strange chassis sounds, they can be emanating from anywhere.
