It wasn't a month after I bought the car and I would notice a whistle noise when I was driving on the highway. It would only happen when I was over about 55MPH. I took it to the dealer and explained the situation. They have heard several complaints about it and thought they knew what it was. After they drove it around and heard what I was hearing they realized it was the cover on the mirror/cover where the mirror connects to the car was loose. They took it off and put something inside of the cover and made sure there were no spots where wind could get in and make a noise. They tightened everything up and I was on my way. I have yet to hear the whistle again.
