Default New Pilot owner

Moving over to this board, traded in my 2018 CRV for a 2021 Pilot Special Edition. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

Drive that truck and enjoy it. only item i have come across reading is that when driving around a turn, your auto brake system may slow your vehicle down, and there was radio popping sound after 1k miles and is fixable by the dealership unless they have already put in the fix for the new Pilot.

So far so good. Only question I have is that there appears to be wind noise originating from the area around the door side mirror at higher speeds (50 mph plus) and or a strong crosswind. Common issue and is there a cure? Thanks

before you do anything on your vehicle, always state your wind noise to your dealer in detail, write it down or record it somehow so they have a copy down line if it continues or gets worse. if they need to do a test drive leave it during a service check, and each service check thereafter complain about the wind noise. you also might do a test drive on another Pilot like yours to see if that one has the same wind noise. it might just be a seal not doing it job.
