Hello All,
A rock kicked up on the way and cracked my windshield last week. I had the windshield replaced by Safelite this past Monday and noticed after the install and cure time, I have some wind noise and creaking. They are going to come back out to take a look and see what the issue is. Any ideas on the creaking sound. On a flat road, no creaks but any bump or imperfection and I can hear it. I can even hear it just going up and down my driveway. It seems to be coming from where the windshield and the dash meet. I checked under the hood and examined the cowl area as I suspect this is where it is coming from. I have heard that there may be some felt in this area? Maybe mine was removed? Any ideas?
