    I have a howling noise that shows up at 70+mph but not all of the time. It sounds like it could be antenna or trim or something catching enough air to make it do that. I captured a video but it won’t let me upload it. It sounds like it’s coming from the antenna area or upper right hand corner of the windshield. I have checked for loose trim, loose antenna, everything. Had the truck since November of 18 and it has never done it until about a month ago.

    Take the antenna off and see if the noise goes away

    I have a similar issue on the drivers side. Thought it was the aerodynamics of the side mirror or trim. It's not consistent, it varies by speed, sometimes its 70+, sometimes 80s, sometimes 90s. I recently added the weather tech side window deflectors thinking it may fix it, but I think it's still there, although quieter. Only did it last week and haven't had the truck on the highway long enough to see. I have not asked the dealer about it.

    Already had a stubby. It was coming from the drivers side in my case.
