Does anyone gets bothered by the noise that fabric wind deflector makes? It pops up once sunroof opens and has fabric net that makes hissing noise while you drive.

I agree loud and annoying...seems they could have figured out a way to make it more aero dynamic and quieter. Its such a quiet car and they have worked hard to make it even quieter. Weird they didnt address this issue...maybe 2016iii?

Just opened my sunroof for the first time a few days ago and yes mine seems loud and annoying. I'm thinking of adding a wind deflector and maybe that will help quiet it down.

The fishnet fabric wind deflector is loud, ugly, and hackish.

I couldn't agree more! I was shocked when I first tried it. I can't believe it's that much cheaper than a simple piece of plastic like every other car I've had!

Is there away to modify it and get rid of the fabric and replace it with a proper wind deflector? My after market Wabasto sunroof I had installed on my Mazda is 10x better deflecting the wind noise then the GMC OEM sunroof cloth one. Talking about dropping the ball! I may take it to the place that installed my Wabastco sunroof and see if they can modify it.

It's by far THE loudest wind noise with the roof open than ANY other vehicle I've ever driven. A true and bold statement. I've driven countless numbers of cars in my profession too...

I must be the heretic because I moved from a 'proper' wind deflector to this fishnet and I totally love it. I found the wind deflector an odd piece that never looked right and would always collect debris and grime through the winter months which was super hard to clean over the years.

Has anyone addressed this noisy bug screen? I have a 2007 Suburban and I love having the sunroof open. However, on my 2015 Yukon XL the noise is terrible.
