Hello,

I just bought a brand new Raptor a month ago and It came with a Whistling noise on the front passenger side. Since I realized about the noise, I have taken it to two different dealerships, which they both have acknowledge about hearing the noise while driving it. The Noise comes up after 60mph. From there it gets louder. These two dealers tried "fixing" the issue. But none had success. The first one did a whole bunch of warranty claims to FORD and only took the front windshield off and put it back on. They alleged that was the issue but nothing happened. Doing that windshield job took them two weeks. Then I Took the truck to the second dealership and I personally went for a ride with The head of service at that second dealer, after the service advisor asked me to go there because they could find the noise. while I was driving the car with the head of service, he personally told me "look I am hearing the noise, but you must understand these trucks are made of plastic and they are not build perfectly some will sound and others wont". He told me that he was going to order the body mounted weatherstrip and the one from the door to try it out, that was it for that day. The day after they send me pictures of my truck all taped up, and they told me that they were not going to order any weather strip nor contact ford warranty for the issue, "come and pick up your truck there is nothing else we can do for you" So, now with this issue going on, has anyone had this same noise issue with any raptor? Is there a way to fix it? The dealers are of NO help and Warranty is a piece of work, I feel I am on my own in this. Today my truck barely has 1000 miles on it.

Yes I have the same problem, started when new and I have 2500 miles now, haven't taken it back to my dealer yet, was hoping it would be an easy fix. Do you have the moon roof? I'm not sure where it's coming from.

I don't have the moonroof. It seems to be from some part from the front passenger door, or the firewall on that side. I've tried double weatherstripping, tape all over the side of the car, water test, In my case I'm kind of out of options, and the dealers keep saying that these trucks have horrible quality control and BS excuses. I have two months with mine, and its been around a month from dealer to dealer.

Mine is a vibrating noise, very faint and on both sides. If you lower and raise the window, it goes away.

Or do the Cheech and Chong test by filling to cab with smoke and see where it’s leaking. Although you might not care at that point. Lol

Is your wife in the passenger seat by chance? Mine yells at me for going over about 60. :Big Laugh:
