Does this make any noise at highway speeds? Rattling, etc?

Owned mine for 2 years now. It's been through 2 harsh winters. Works as good as the day I first installed it. No rattle or noise of any kind. If you install correctly it won't shift out of line. If the outer rubber gasket is not laying flat for a perfectly tight seal, carefully use a heat gun on the rubber per manufacturer install video. It will than forever lay flat for you.

No, it does not make noise at all. I am very pleased with this product and would recommend it. I put it on my Ford F150 truck and it also looks sharp. The folding ability is very handy.

Mine does not and if it's installed properly noise should not be a concern.

No noise at all, rides flush with the bed if installed right. In my opinion it is the best bed cover to get because it can be folded all the way up against the back window so you have about 95% of your bed. It also protects your window from anything thrown into the bed just like a headache bar. I'm glad everyday that I got this model!

Does not make any noise at all. Now into my second year with it and I really like it. No complaints.

none that I have noticed. very securely sealed to bed. if you improperly installed the cover it could rub against the rear of the cab. easy solution would be to not do that.there is also no noise when fully opened. rubber pads seat it very nicely against the cab.

Nope. Even when up to have full access of the bed. No issues. I love this cover. Even folds as low was negative 24f. A little stiff. But works.

It does make a constant motor sound, but not too loud. While driving, the road noise cancelled it out.

No. It's sturdy and quiet. My problem is keeping it on the truck. It's blown off twice.

I found it to be no noisier than any other fan of this type. I would say unless you are driving a 1980 Ford, it is most likely more noisy in the high speed setting than the fan in the car ventilation.

No. Its not very loud at all. The problem is the gauge is not accurate, and it seems they've known about the issue but haven't fixed it yet. It will also blow fuses if you're not careful.

I have mine mounted in my golf cart, so haven't heard any noises from it. However, when I first got it before it was mounted, I did not hear any sounds from its mechanism.

No .. mine doesn't rattle. It just makes the usual noise that a compressor makes. Hope this helps .. good luck!

Yep, never have any issues. Had it for about 5 months and it is the best investment I ever made. You don't hear anything when on the highway

No, I didn't have a rattle with mine. I used it until I got a new air conditioner, which I really needed up here on the second floor. Mine was not noisy like that at all either. I could easily go to sleep with it on.

It is loud but I wouldn't call it a rattling sound. Mine works great There is a small piston driven by a small electric motor that pumps the air. I think you are hearing the piston moving.

On high speed it is pretty noisy,but not more than a bladed fan. I'm pretty sensitive to noise so maybe it's me. On low it is just fine

I've got it in three of the four tires on my 1979 VW bus and don't notice any vibrations even going down the freeway at 65-70 miles an hour----I've used it for years to stop slow leaks in tires-----It can be washed out with water if you don't like it----

I was kind of surprised at how quiet it was myself. you just hear a little rumble from inside the truck. I actually have to turn off the radio to hear it with the windows up or down, doesn't make much difference. its a little louder when you get in the throttle a bit. hope this helps

Last year i did a trip from Ok to CA and back, it does not flap or make noise, at high speed you can see it vibrate though.

No not at all. On my prelude with full exhaust it sounds like a subaru wrx . When at idle it's barely noticeable and when it is running on highway at 65-70 mph it is loud but not enough to get pulled over for.

I don't notice any noise and they have a very aerodynamic blade design. I leave them on all the time and don't do a lot of highway driving. I don't worry about MPG and have never checked. They are easy to install and remove if you want to save on gas when they are not needed.
