I installed a hood deflector and now I have a whistle sound over 25 mph. I live near a gravel pit. So the deflector is necessary. Are there deflectors that don’t cause a whistle?

Which one did you get? I bought the one from the Ford accessory catalog. It does not whistle.

I forget the brand name. I thought it was an “official” accessory but it sounds like others are not having the issue so I guess I will try the one offered on the ford site.

Moving from Mazda CX-5 to Bronco Sport in a week
Bought mine from the dealer, had them do the install. Figured that way if any problems THEY had to fix them. The thing that took the longest, was warming the hood and the deflector, they said that was important for good seal and adhesion.
