Wind noise? 2021 Palisade

[Ted.van]

I am about to purchase a 2021 Palisade. I was trying to make my final decision about color, but came across this forum and have read about the wind noise. Does anyone know if this is still the case on the 2021 models? I didn't notice it when I test drove it but we were talking and had the radio on and didnt get up to excessive speeds. Just wondering if this is still an issue on the 2021?

many threads on it. Seems to have been fixed for 2021 models built in late 2020. Some early build 2020s might still have the issue.


My 2021 was built 12-2020 and doesn’t have the issue

I have a 3 mos. old limited and have not experienced the wind noise that others have noticed. Road and engine noise are a bit more than my previous Highlander but not excessive.

I do notice wind noise from the B pillars in my 2021 Calligraphy. It's not huge, but I'm constantly checking to see if my windows are fully closed. This car is quiet, but not Lexus quiet.

Take another test drive at a speed above 70 and turn the radio off.
I have a 2020 limited and no noise, only a little in a cross wind.
My neighbors navigator has the same amount of noise in cross wind.
An SUV does make more noise than a smaller car any way

Proud to announce that I did purchase the 2021 Caligraphy FWD and I noticed no issues when driving home. Got up to high 80 and did not notice wind noise. I will update as time goes on.

That’s good. It was a hit or miss issue. I have a 2020 and never had any.

So far so good here. We live in our vehicle basically so I'll know pretty soon all the flaws. ❤
