Disappointment 2018 Longhorn 4X4
 
I'm truly disappointed with the wind noise inside my crew cab at highway speed!
I took my 2018 RAM Longhorn edition back to the dealer for wind noise diagnostics.
The service writer felt it was abnormal, but after the service tech looked, the dealer says it is what it is......

Anyone else with a 2018 hear excessive wind noise?
With the amount of money I spent I would have expected better!

usually they are pretty quiet with the noise cancellation system.


test drive another identical vehicle and see if the noise is present on that vehicle. If not on that truck...there is a problem.
-are there any aftermarket accessories on the vehicle that would change airflow around the vehicle? if yes, remove them... bush guards, bug delfectors, window deflectors, light bars etc
-does the noise change when you pull the mirrors in? I had a 2017 with wind noise at the drivers door window. pulling the mirrors in change the noise....taped up the puddle lamps and the noise was gone...replacement of the poorly fitting puddle lamp fixed the problem.
-masking tape to cover up glass and body seams near the area in question may help you locate the problem.

polymolybadchit,
Are you thinking of getting a second opinion? If so, send us a PM with your VIN and we'll get this over to a Case Specialist who'll work with the dealer toward a possible resolution.

Is it noise from the temp sensor, try taping it over and see if that helps. If it's from that your stuck with it.
