Wind vibration noise
I had to drive up to Edmonton Canada for a Wedding last weekend. On the way up we hit 50-60 mph cross winds. Something around my windshield started to vibrate bad. Now it happens anytime I hit a cross wind or above 70 mph.
I believe it's the windshield wippers or the plastic trim under them vibrating on the windshield. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem.

Re: Wind vibration noise
I get the same "farting" noise, especially with gusty crosswinds. I assume it is my marker lights or the poorly fitting A-pillar mouldings. Do you have marker lights on your vehicle?

Re: Wind vibration noise
No marker lights on mine. I originaly thought it was the Apillers too but mine are tight.
I'm taking mine to the dealer tomarrow because of a bad O ring on the gas cap. It's making the check engine light come on if I'm not careful about how I put the cap on.

Re: Wind vibration noise
There have been several posts on this issue. It's the moulding above the windshield. When you hit 65+ mph, the wind gets under it somehow and makes almost a shattering noise. Mine happens on the mid to left side. I thought it was the left A pillar for a year. My Service Mgr (dealer) told me finally that a notice/bulletin had come out about it and they have been on back order. Should be anytime now ..I've been waiting a few months already. And, no, I don't have marker lights (yet).

Re: Wind vibration noise
So I guess I need:
New roof rails (cracked), new A-pillars (poor fit), new marker lights (noise problem) AND a new upper windshield moulding.  Is there anything I can keep? Maybe the antenna?

Re: Wind vibration noise
got the same thing here. It's just a pain to go to the dealer and have it all replaced. Mine are cracked, loud, look like sh#t too. I have roof lights too that doesn't help either.
