Hello Todd,
Just curious, is there a known fix for this or are you just planning on setting up an appt with our dealer?

I have the over-sized toe mirrors and when I fold them in at freeway speed it doesn't make a difference.

Thanks. Just trying to cover all the bases. There are a plethora of potential sources - cowl, hood grill gap, window seals, etc... Some sounds can mask / be masked by others.

I have noticed an intermittent wind noise on my driver's side when going down the highway. In what I think may be related, I can also hear my driver's front window flexing or moving within the weatherstripping when going over random bumps. I am taking my truck in on Friday to have them try and check the window and weatherstripping alignment, to see if that may be part of the issue.

I notice noise also when windy, almost a vibration type hum, not typical window wind noise, could it be aluminum flexing - fluttering - vibrating? It seems lower then windows. IMO

That is the entire door moving, rubbing against the weather stripping. If you place your fingers in between the door and body (tight fit), you can feel the door moving up and down ever so slightly, when driving down a bumpy road, or over a bridge.

I have not tried yet, but i think a little rubber/vinyl dressing will eliminate it. It's a good idea to apply dressing every 6 months. And hit the tailgate with some white lithium grease.

Solid advice.

Cheers.

Hi TX15FX4,

My aim is to connect those of you experiencing concerns to your regional customer service managers, who'll be able to work with your preferred Ford Dealers to come to a solution. This is the next step in the process.

Hey MGD & pb65stang,

I want to help get these issues solved, just as I mentioned above. Please send me a PM with your full name, phone number, VIN, mileage, and preferred servicing dealership. I'm here to assist.

Hey there Cajuntriton,

Have you been able to make an appointment with your Ford Dealer? I show you're working with Deborah, but the vehicle needs to be diagnosed first. Let me know; I'll get an update to Deb once I have the latest.

Its not the antenna...
When I fold the mirror in it gets some better but does nor go away completely.
I had a 2011, 2013 and 2014 all with turbo [which is irrelevant] all SCREW and none made this noise.
I bought a Lariat 2015 V8 and it made noise so bad starting at 45 that it sounded like gale force winds whistling on your windows during a severe storm. If you have ever left your drivers window slightly cracked you know the same whistling noise. My dealer had no clue. I had other issues including a leaking sun roof and so I took the truck back with 2000 miles and traded it. I lost $2700 in the deal because I just did not feel like dealing with all the issues including this...Its the type thats difficult to nail down. So I bought another identical truck that they had to locate and bring in out of state. Guess what? No leaking sun roof but the wind noise is the same...actually slightly worse and starts at a slightly lower speeds. $57,000 truck. Makes no sense at all.
