Well i was gonna post a picture of what they did showing the bulletin number but I’m not paying a dollar a month to be able to post pictures. Doesn’t matter anyway because on the first drive to work the noise was still there. I’m gonna try that seam sealer fix in the spring.

I took mine in to the dealer and they did the tsb . It helped, but still have a noise,think it might be the tires.
Still a very noisy truck.

Well I have tried all the tips recommended on here and nothing. Took it back to the dealer for a third time and after 2 weeks they still couldn’t get it to duplicate. So that is a total of 29 days of my truck being out for this issue with no resolve. Chrysler got involved and they basically had nothing for me...told me to try taking it to the Jeep dealership and let those mechanics look at it. At this point I thought about going the lemon law route, but ultimately I just want a truck that doesn’t whistle every time I get it on the open highway. I’m going to cut my losses and sell it for what I can and go with a different make. It really is a shame because these are such beautiful trucks, but I am tired of dealing with this.

Is this what everyone is hearing?
BLB, this is exactly what I am getting now at 60+ mph. Thought it was some kind of electro static noise through my pillar speaker at first. Annoying as hell and I got a 15hr drive coming up T-Giving week. Has anyone definitively figured this noise out yet? Mine just started at 7500 miles on a 2018 RAM Limited. First I thought it was the mirrors, but open/closed it doesn't matter. Seems to be more from the pillars. Noticed the rubbers on the windscreen where the pillar rubber meets the bit coming from the engine is not flush with each other? Is this normal? If not, figure maybe wind from highway speed was working its way up through the pillar channel??
I have the same issue and have active noise. Sounds like it is coming from the passenger side rear speaker.
Sorry it took so long to reply.. The wind nose is less now. Not as quiet as some say.
Do have another question. Is there a tsb for the remote? Mine doesn't work sometimes, have to use the key and put the remote next to the start button. Thanks

Took it to the Dealer yesterday and got it back today, not really happy because of course they can't replicate it. Suggested I give it time to let the seals break in. Really. $60K for a truck that you can't drive in a windy situation is bulls**t. Looks like I may need a lawyer at some point for the Lemon Law. Just can't believe all these complaints and no solutions from Ram or anyone.

I recently bought a 2019 Ram Laramie 1500. I had the same problem as described many times on this site. If I cracked a window the right rear window would whistle when I got up to 40 MPH. The dealer ordered a new door seal but it didn't fix the problem. Fortunately, they didn't give up. They ended up pulling the rear seat and carpet and they discovered one of the access holes on the rear of the cab was not sealed. After they sealed it the noise shifted to the left side so they did the same thing on that side and I am happy to report I no longer have the whistling noise. I hope this helps some of you fix the problem..

No worries at all, Rottonrob. I was able to locate STAR case #S1908000037 which does reference symptoms similar to what you describe you are experiencing. To ensure this case applies, we would like to get you back into the dealer to have a qualified technician review the details of the case and specifics of your vehicle. Once reviewed, the technician can then perform the repair procedure that best matches the symptoms and diagnosis of your vehicle.
Hi BLB,
I regret to hear of the frustration associated with your situation. If you plan to continue working with your dealer on this, please let us know via private message. We would be more than happy to connect you with a case manager for an additional layer of support through that process.

The quality control on these appears to be non-existent. That's a shame. Seems so many companies have the recipe, but give up on the last ingredients that would take a product from good to being great. Ram appears to be sooooo close and yet...so far away. @RamCares if you have any input to the folks in charge, this would be number on the "pay attention" list.
