I have a 2019 1500 Limited that I bought back in September. Since owning it, any time I drive 35+ mph there is a distinct wind whistle noise that comes in from the front right passenger window. When I crack the window, it seemingly goes away, but could very well be drowned out by the louder wind noise actually coming in. During a dealership visit for a seperate issue, they said they were unable to recreate the issue. But it persist to this day. I've looked at a couple forums which all seem to end with no real solution or just speculation as to what causes it. Was wondering if anyone else has dealt with, and maybe solved this issue? Thanks in advance.

For extra reference, I have the 4x4 and towing package, so I have the non powered folding tow mirrors. That was one speculation of the source of noise.

Hi, there are some write ups on wind noise one being wind noise from the door mirrors, try folding them in when you hear the, (sounds like a horn) noise, some are putting thin foam in by removing the mirror and putting it in there around the whole mirror exterior edges, there are others saying to shut the recirculation off from the wind hitting it see if it goes away when turning the recirc off an on, another is the door gaskets are causing a problem, another is the Hood flush to the fenders, adjust the release latch or the rubber bumpers on left and right side, mine went away when I folded in my passenger mirror in, so I'm going to put the gasket material behind it to see if it helps, hope this helps!!!

P/S I can give you the info on the foam tape I used.

Hi @Caleb Johnson - If you address this any further with your dealer, please be sure to follow up with us via private message. I would like to escalate a case on your behalf so that you have the additional support of a case specialist for your visit. They can work alongside your dealer to ensure all outlets are exhausted in addressing this.

Try temporarily removing your antenna and see if it goes away.

Use painters tape to cover all the door gaps, that should eliminate if it's the door seals
