Just purchased a new Sentra S a couple months ago and am pretty aggravated with this thing. While driving interstate either into a somewhat mediocre head wind, or even a side wind, the mirrors start to honk like a goose :wtf2: . Has anyone else experienced anything like this? If so have you found a fix or did the dealer have a fix for it. TIA

Hi, I also have a base model S, it's a 2015. Bought the car new and have never experienced any kind of weird wind noise especially coming from the side mirrors. Seems to me like the mirrors were probably not installed correctly from the factory and in that case the dealer should adjust them or replace them completely. Be careful though, the dealer will want to replicate the problem and some dealers are shady and say there's nothing wrong or that that's how the car is. Don't be afraid to try multiple dealers if one gives you the run around. Good luck.

Update:

This ended up not being a mirror issue after all. The door seals had a TSB out on them and after the shop changed these no more noise, even at 80 with a high headwind.
