[Mohab]

Good evening everyone,
Please let us know if you decide to have your dealers look into this so we can have this documented and looked into further.
Thank you,

Yes I have seen 2 dealers both did nothing about it

I have the driver side door wind noise too, had it since truck was new, starts around 35 mph and isn't normal or caused by the standard truck mirror. Only coming from the driver side window. If you push gently where the door panel meets the drivers side window most of the wind noise stops. I have my truck at the dealer now and they have replaced the window seal which didn't fix the issue. The dealer is opening a Star case today.

Any updates on the case? I still have the whistle noise

Let me add something, the gap between the chrome and the plastic parts of the driver side mirror is bigger than the other mirror which makes the wind to blow in between and make the whistle

Maybe a pic of where you think the source is?

I have this same issue. No whistle sound, but get the occasional turbulence reverberation in the cab every so often. Very weird.

Yes this is the noise, I have appointment with a leak specialist at Ram dealer to look into it

Any update on your issue? It sounds identical to mine. I picked up my 2019 limited and as soon as it gets up to 40mph I get the noise inside, sounds like it's on the driver's side dash behind the steering wheel.. What I did to temporary fix the issue is I took painter's tape and covered the air vents on the outside of the truck just at the bottom of the windshield( I'm not sure what those vents are called). Of course I took it to a dealer and they said they couldn't find anything wrong. Also get the noise when I hit the recirculation button on the ac controls and also when I tilt the sunroof up. I am going to take it back to the dealer where I bought it from in January hopefully they can fix. Please let me know of any updates to yours.

Here are images of the driver side mirror, there is gap between chrome and plastic part of it, you can blow air throw this gap ( it is not exist in the other mirror) when I cover these gaps with tap the noise goes away, I am planning to go to dealer and request mirror replacement

Did you try retracting your mirrors while driving? During some crosswind it can get a little loud it seems. I folded my mirrors in and still had the wind nose.

 

[Mohab]

Even if u fold them there will be noise coz the wind still going through the gap

Hi, I’m having the exact same issue and the dealer is being beyond recalcitrant. I explained how the whistling noise comes and goes when the AC recirc is off and they basically shrugged their shoulders. Is there any way to escalate the issue to FCA?

There is also loose trim along the bottom corner glass near the pillar. My wind noise only arises when there is a strong cross wind. SMH

Yes , u can call them , they are following up with me and calling every couple weeks to make sure the issue is being worked on. I am waiting for the mirror to come and install

I have the noise as well. It seems to start between 35mph and 40 mph. Is it possible that the active noise cancellation system is making the wind noise? It sounds like it's wind but might be coming from the speakers. I hear it from the rear of the truck

 

[Pcquine]

For the folks having the wind noise, what type of mirrors do you have? Standard or towing?

Seriously has anyone tried what I was saying with recirc on-off at highway speed?

I haven’t tried it yet but will tomorrow. I hope it works. Did you hear wind noise or whistling?

I’m talking to my dealer Monday. I have a 2018 Ram 1500 Big Horn Crew Cab.

 

[Pcquine]

This wind noise is very irritating. It’s on my passenger side when I go over 40 mph. I have put the mirrors in while driving and it still makes the sound. I’m going to try the recirculation button tomorrow and I hope it works. My 2010 Ram did not have this problem. I wish I didn’t trade it in for this truck due to the wind noise. I go to my dealer on Monday to see if they can help too.

 

[Mohab]

It is wind whistle, and it is from the mirror as shown in pictures above , u need to replace your mirror

 

[Jbeard93]

I'm having this same issue I think but mine is from the passenger side. We can push against the door and the noise will stop. The dealer has already replaced the driver door seal for this issue and also replaced the passenger mirror for a faulty mirror. The sound I have is like a Morse code and very annoying.

I am having wind noise on the passenger side at highway speeds, no whistle. Just wind noise. I have also noticed if the climate system is turned off the noise seems to go away, or at least get somewhat quieter. Zero noise coming from the driver's side.
