Whats the deal?

Whenever i am driving at 60+ MPH it sounds there there is air coming through my window. My window is rolled all the way up and it is unbelievably annoying! Has anyone else had this happen? Any ideas?

that or possibly your windows got misaligned somehow. again, should be fixed under warranty with no issues.

I had the same problem with my driver side window. There are a tiny gap right by the side mirror. I took it to my dealer and they said it has been a common problem....

They installed a little rubber piece that fits perfectly, and the noise is gone.

Take it to your dealer. I'm sure they will fix it without charging you. I know, it was the MOST annoying sound I've ever heard.
