Default air leak in drivers door

I have a 2007 chevy silverado crew cab LTZ and its started a BAD air / wind noise around the drivers and passengers doors going over 40mph. its not a huge problem but its driving me crazy...

is this a known issue with these trucks ? and what should i do to correct this issue? The doors seem to close tight but its getting so bad it sounds almost like my window is down a half inch at the top ..

I'm sorry you are experiencing this issue with your vehicle. This may be due to a gap between the door and pillar molding. This is just a suggestion, not a diagnosis.

I recommend consulting with a certified technician for an official diagnosis and repair option(s).

Please keep us posted. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me privately.
