I have a 2016 Ram 1500 Laramie. Had W/S replaced and now have whistling noise. They have replaced W/S again (twice) and have replaced W/S moulding. Whistling noise still there. Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated!

What he ^^ said. Someone ain't sealing it correctly, or using the wrong sealing gasket(s), or isn't cleaning the old sealant out completely first, or...?

Have you replaced your stock antenna with a "stubby" antenna? Some of the short antenna's cause a whistling sound inside the truck.

Roy this is what I found and learned when I replaced the windshield in my 03. Got a great recommendation for one of the mobile company's. Cost $150. Winter came and windshield leaked at passenger side corner. Company came back and "fixed" Still leaked. Took it to one of the national brand company's. Manger sent me to school. Some of the low cost mobile company's, like I used. DO NOT remove and replace the rubber windshield boot. They cut the top off the boot with a razor knife and use silicone to reset the new windshield. If they get the silicone sealer right and set it correctly, could be fine. For $325 he removed/replaced the boot, new winshield and installed correctly. My fault for not paying attention.
