Air through window speeds over 65

[5starr0]

So when i drive home on the highway my driver window starts whistling in air. Only happens when i'm at higher speeds 65+ and is very annoying. I brought it to the dealership and they say they cant duplicate the problem, prob because they are driving like 55. The window seems to be positioned with the seal, so i'm not sure what to try and do.

Anyone else with these issues. 2.5 year old car and stuff like this makes me want to get rid of it.

Same issue for me except passenger window.
Whistling appeared after Door Latch Recall repair.

you know what, it was noticeable after the air latch repair

I'm not sure if you meant "what" vs "that". ;)
But if the latter, then yes the noise appeared on the way home from the Latch Repair.

Sadly, No Richmond dealer can ever "re-create issues" here.

went back to the dealer a second time to have them look at the window. They almost didnt want to do anything again. I said it started when the door handle recall service was done. They did confirm the window is removed to do the door handle replacement. Hopefully they fix it, dont want to get too attached to my ford fusion rental

Oh and they wanted to charge me over 200 bucks to deglaze my brembos because they squeak...crazy

YUP! I was at the dealer yesterday for an oil change and tire balance. The service manager mentioned the recall and I said "no rush" on the recall.

They did it anyway, UGH ! Now I have wind noise that I did not have before.

Now, I have a vert so there is more noise anyway but I noticed it right away and it is driving me crazy! :frusty:

Strange, I had wind noise above 80mph UNTIL they fixed the door latch. Now it's quiet. It's possible they didn't adjust the window correctly when they reinstalled them or the latch needs to be adjusted to pull the door in a little more.

got the update that the adjustment did make a better fitment. Still gotta love a dealership trying to avoid fixing something.

The squeaky brembos (at least with OEM pads) are a fact of life.

Had squeak on my brembos until I put some Powerstop carbon ceramic z26 pads.

Think that may be my next move, might just get new rotors also to replace while the wheels are off.

Drive home yesterday went fine, didnt hear any wind through the window. The adjustment seemed to fix the problem.
