Whistle sound coming from grille / hood on some Big Bend and Outer Banks Broncos. Improved hood seal design coming October

I got the email today that the parts to fix this are at my dealer. I'll update this once it's fixed.

Did they say what the parts are?

They didn't but I know another person who had it done and I believe it's just a gasket. When I schedule my service appointment, I'll ask.

Mine starts somewhere between 60 mph and 70… it’s pretty damn annoying.

not sure this will ever be my wife and I’s road trip car lol. Whistles, top rattles and a whole lot of road noise.

Anyone know if there is a fix for this yet? Took delivery just over a week ago and my 1000mi drive home was all whistle Would love to get it fixed but don't want to waste time at the dealership

Got my hardtop today, anything above 60 it's whistling Dixie. It seems to be coming from the hardtop not the grill/hood

@Bunk M did you get the fix done, what was it and did it stop the whistling?

Mine was whistling really bad on a long trip when it was windy. Contrary to my original post in this thread It must have been the crosswind I guess? Ugh

I haven't checked with the dealer yet about the part.

Getting it done next Friday.

Any update on the fix? I want to take mine in for the whistle, but unsure on how long it will take to fix.

Did the fix actually remove the whistle?

Following up on this. Has anyone had any luck getting this part installed? I haven't started the process yet but wanted to see how it's going for others. Thanks!

It’s such an easy fix. Dealer knocked it out i an hour. I had it done back in October not a single whistle since.

I've noticed a whistle on my 2022. It's not really that bad though. I can tune it out and ignore it for the most part. Mostly I listen to podcasts. I'll bet if I had music going I'd never notice.

So is this whistle really loud and impossible to ignore? If so, I probably don't have the same whistle...

We took delivery late July and to my understanding, It's on the Big Bend and OBX. I knew it would take a while to get these things figured out so I'm just following up now. The noise isn't unbearable but once the fix is in place I will definetly be taking it in for service.

Bunk, do you have a part name/number that was utilized to fix the issue? I'd like to have them order it and take it in upon arrival. Appreciate the quick response!

There is also a TSB for a whistle noise that comes from the climate control case.

Spell check and spacing must be broke as well.
