Lariat sunroof noise at 70 MPH

Our 2015 Lariat sunroof makes a crazy roaring noise that starts around 70 MPH. Slow down and it goes away. Selling the truck, customer complaining. Please help. Is this a common problem? Is there an adjustment? Thanks in advance.

Did you check the obvious, like the gaskets/seals? Sounds like a rather easy fix.

One of the seals might be lifted or out of whack. This sometimes happens if people grab onto the sunroof and fiddle with it, like kids.

Yes, took a long hard look at that - nothing strange. Been driving it a bit today. Go slower than 70 MPH and the noise goes away. Go faster than 75, noise goes away.

How about if you get some painters tape and go all the way around the sunroof opening? Just to see if the noise goes away?
