Jeep Renegade whistling noise when front windows rolled up, needs rubber seal inspection on Jeep Renegade

Problem overview

Some Jeep Renegade owners report experiencing a whistling noise when the front windows are rolled up, which is often attributed to issues with the rubber seals around the windows. This noise may result from air passing through drainage holes in the door during cross-winds or a slight misalignment of the window, particularly at high speeds. Some owners have found that pressing the window outwards at the top can temporarily reduce the noise by creating a better seal against the rubber. Additionally, using wind deflectors for the front windows has been noted as a method to minimize wind noise. It is also recommended that owners check the weatherstripping around the doors, windows, and windshield for any damage or looseness, as worn weatherstripping can create gaps that allow air to pass through, exacerbating the whistling noise.
