I just bought a Chevy Volt

Ok Guys n Gals,

Has anyone addressed the brain shaking air hammer buffeting experienced when driving with the driver’s side window down???

Before I get pummeled with comments of aerodynamic principles and how it’s inefficient to drive this platform with the windows down, I just want to say that I am fully aware of all those factoids.

My question to the Volt team in the forum is this...
Have any of you remedied this issue by having the TSB on the mirrors addressed at the dealer level -or- have anyone just installed the weather tech rain shields, fixed the issue and just be about your merry?

This is a pic of the fix at the dealer level from GM. A small faring along the glass(seen on the right in black) and a design mod to the mirror cap.


Weather tech window rain shield.


Cheers

Swing and a miss, anyone? anyone?Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?
