The Toyota Highlander is consumer reports top rated SUV. Great car but excessive wind noise at speeds of 30 plus. Burnsville Toyota cannot fix as there is no technical service bulletin. I found the problem myself and it is the vertical part of window and as roll up will not allow more weather striping. Toyota should redesign the weatherstripping. Toyota district manager looked at and he couldn't care less. My family has bought 7 Toyotas in last 5 years and their response is appalling. If we can not fix will sell and maybe go for the new Honda Pilot, seems like a nice car.

The wind noise is very annoying. Thought the 2008 Highlander was a lot quieter

Didn't notice the problem as much when we were test driving the vehicle, but within a day of buying it and driving it around we definitely noticed the very excessive wind noise.... seems to come from the passenger door..... maybe from the sun roof? not sure exactly, I guess it depends on where you sit in the vehicle. I took it back to Larry Miller Toyota in Peoria and the Maintenance Mgr told me that it is a problem inherent in 2015 Highlanders, that it had something to do with the side mirrors..... I don't know what to believe, but I think the problem is the molding/sealing apparatus around the door was not engineered correctly and nobody wants to own up to it.
