Wind Noise...Possible Solution.
I really noticed the loud wind noise from inside my 2004 TB. I noticed others reported this as well. A couple of days ago I installed "Weather-Tech" visors on all the windows. It's been pretty windy here the last couple of days and the noise seems to be gone.
Don't know if anybody else has tried this....or has any experience with these. But if it stays the same......I'll be a happy camper!! Wayne |

Update
Took a couple hour ride today....pretty windy and "No" noise. I'm very inpressed!! Really bothered me when I first heard that freight train noise in a crosswind.
I got the dark Weathertech visors and I think it was the right choice. The dark tint helps block sunlight. Install is pretty simple. Just thought I'd share my experience so far. Wayne |

Yeah.....they probably should have done some more road testing. But maybe it's too costly for them to do. But the visor deals are working...and other than that we really like the whole package.....except the hard, flat, leather front seats.
I had a 2003 Durango last week while the tranny in my truck was upgraded. All I can say is.....the trailblazer is light years ahead. Better power(the Durango had the 360), a lot better fuel mileage, ride quality can't be compared as well as road noise and overall comfort. Yes, I think we can all find things that bug us about these vehicles.....but just try some of the competition...in the same price range that is. Wayne |

Yes....well....it cost me $79.99 for all four windows. Not happy I had to do that....but I'm sure happy it solved the problem. I guess the weather visors add to the look of the vehicle as well as their function.
I'm glad we have this vehicle......otherwise the wife was mentioning a mi*i Van.....just can't bring myself to utter those words. Kind of like saying stationwagen...ooooh it gives me shivers just thinking about wood grain sides. Wayne |

Re: Wind Noise...Possible Solution.
Other people have just added some weather stripping to stop the noise.... I haven't been on a long enough trip to bother me yet.

Wind Noise around Window
I had quite a bit of noise whenever there was a crosswind around my front passenger window. Dealer tried to fix it twice. I finally just opened the door, grabbed the front top of the window frame and bent it SLIGHTLY towards the truck. No more noise.
