Element

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13,670 miles

My one year old Element is producing a unbearable high pitch noise when driven over 100km/h in windy conditions. I do not have nay external accessories such as a roof rack etc. attached to the car.
Does anyone have an explanation for this?

Element EX 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 9,852 miles

I've had the Element for over a year and never had this problem before until driving on the freeway one windy day it started making a LOUD, SHRILL noise from the combination of high speed and wind. Since then, whenever I get over 65 or 70 mph it seems to make the noise. I have no accessories mounted on the exterior so my only guess is that it is coming from the body trim somehow.
