- 2014 Ford Explorer XLT
Hi, I have a 2014 XLT, 102,400 miles. Just this week I started noticing a strange buffeting noise which seems to be coming from the drivers side rear wheel. Its noticeable at any speed but loudest at 65-70MPH. Push it to 80MPH and although still noticeable, it gets quieter. I have relatively new tires which were due a rotation, so I rotated them this week thinking maybe that tire/wheel was out of balance but still getting the buffeting. No change. Sounds very similar to the buffeting you get having a rear window open only. The car only gets highway miles and driven very easy. I pulled that wheel again last night and inspected the suspension and didn't see anything out of order. The brakes were changed last fall. Any ideas?
