2026 3500 Limited SRW - Weird 'howling' wind noise.....

[WildLines]

Getting this weird air 'howling' noise, start to hear it 50-60 mph

It sounds like a vent is open and gets louder with speed. Makes me think it is coming in a blower or duct that is open somewhere on the other side of the fire wall.

Gets pretty loud, you have to turn up the radio pretty good to tune it out. Maybe a windshield issue? I do have the sport hood anyone experienced that causing issues?

I have turned off the AC, still there.
I have switched it to recirculation, still there. I

It is not a whistle like around the mirrors, folded them in, still there.

Truck did not have this when I got it. Anyone experience this issue and have any insight before I go the dealer route?

Do you have a sunroof? I'm sure its annoying since it could be so many things. Could you let us know some specs about your truck?
Year, engine, cab lights, etc?
Possibly a door/window seal somewhere?
Have you done anything to your vehicle about the time it started making noise? I'm thinking tires maybe?

In addition to the above, maybe the clearance lights if equipped? Perhaps one is loose, or the antennas?

No sunroof. Stock everything, I was about to do tires but when this started, I figured the dealer would just blame it on them so I paused the install.

Truck has 2,500 miles. Started around 1,500 miles.

I do have the marker lights on top, worth checking.

Thanks for chiming in.

Good idea to hold off on the tires. Probably ridculous to ask this, but is your rear window slightly open? I just feel like its got to be something simple and maybe bumping that button while playing with all the new goodies might have not gotten closed all the way??? Mine has about 1900 miles and is so quiet for a vehicle this big.

Thanks All - Mystery solved. After reading these I went out and just looked around. I noticed 2 marker lighs were about 1/8" higher in the front than the rest. Pressed on them and they snapped back in place... back to dead silent.

Post pictures. I want the same truck and trim.

Good to hear. Hopefully you didn't get much water in there.
