Re: Different Kind of Wind Noise
I have had the same noise - - the humming sound of blowing over a Coke bottle - - intermittently at around 70 mph with certain cross winds. To me, it comes from the upper right side of the windshield. Hondatech recommended using a leaf blower to identify the location of the noise. There does appear to be TSB on this issue, with Honda replacing the foam first and then the entire windshield and rubber molding. I drove a fully loaded brand new Lincoln truck over the weekend because Ford is unloading those at around 35k fully loaded, and it still doesnt stack up to the Ridge. With the widespread water leaks and wind noise on the Ridges, I am just upset the Honda didn't take the time during the design phase to identify and fix these problems. I guess I expected more from Honda. I love my Ridge but I was embarrased by the wind noise recently during a highway drive with coworkers and I now feel like the water leak is inevitable (I am at 8k miles on my 06 RTL and no leaks yet). Anyone else feel like it may be time to unload their beloved Ridge?
