| Description of the problem | When you open the rear passenger window(s) there is severe, loud and painful-to-the-ear turbulence inside the vehicle at any speed. It can be somewhat, but not totally, alleviated by opening other vehicle windows. If you persist with the rear windows down at speed, it feels like you are physically damaging your ears. |
