A Pillar Flapping / Crackling noise at speed

Production Defect.....Wind Noise
I have to wonder if the factory has made any production changes with so many complaints of the same problem? This type of problem on such an expensive car is just simply unacceptable after one year of production.....ordering replacement parts is not the solution to the problem....only the factory can really solve the problem with the design engineers......Certainly in 2021 with a very attractive and capable model JLR can do better.....

Finally got my car back yesterday suspension fixed, A Pillar factory bulletin completed and no more noise passenger side windshield
Than second time on highway same day APillar broke loose and flapping hard was a let to slow and keep from breaking off, but both lower cover pieces are loose
heading back to dealer....

My wife's First Edition was built in 04/20 and has had the "fix" twice already. Noise comes back every time. Now it is back in the shop for another issue and to fix this yet again. The 2020 SE Defender we have as a loaner has the same A Pillar issue. Not a good design at all. LR should be ashamed to have this same issue come back time after time. With no permanent solution.

I did register a formal complaint with the NHTSA.

I have owned 5 Range Rovers and one LR3 and two previous gen Defenders. I came back to LR after a long absence (bought Land Cruiser and Cayenne) and bought the 2020 Defender. Wake up Land Rover, and for heaven sake get some competent people to do QC.
