Wind noise on new H3

They put a screw into them?!?! My dealer service dept. removed the whole cracked roof rail and replaced them with the new ones. They had to remove the rack to do it. Others here have said they replaced both roof rails at the same time. Uhhh, I don't think they were supposed to put a screw into it, GotSand H3.

Ya a screw!! i was pissed when I saw that. They said they replaced the rails. Im beginning to think that maybe they just screwed down the old ones. Im going back to complain.

My marker lights were put on after the so called fix and had the same vibrating wind noise. On the first two tries to fix the noise would go away for a week or two then get steadily worse. The third time they also replace the DS A-pillar plastic and I have not had any more noise issue in almost three months.

I just noticed a high pitched whistle this morning at about 70 mph. I could only hear it with the window open. Is this the problem to which everyone was referring? I have the off-road lights, not the marker lights.

Thx!

Definitely not the same as the noise I am talking about with the marker lights. The noise I am talking about is loud enough that it can sometime be hard to even talk over.

I just picked up my new H3 today and we could hardly talk on the way home for the wind noise/virbration racket it was making at speeds over 60mph. My husband looked at it when we got home and said he thought a screw was stripped on the bar that the lights are mounted on. Should I call the dealer and ask for the "fix kit" or are they still on hold? These lights were already on the vehicle.

I would most definitely call the dealer. Mine were that bad at times but they were able to fix them.
