2021 Camry LE wind noise from passenger mirror - Fixable or normal??

My 2016 Camry got totaled about a month ago, and after getting the insurance payout I bought a 2021 Camry LE. I was kind of in a rush to get something, but the car was a good price and in decent condition.

During the test drive I didn’t notice anything, but on the drive home from the dealership I started hearing a whooshing wind noise from the front passenger side as soon as the car hits about 45 mph. It gets pretty loud on the highway but disappears at lower speeds.

This didn’t seem normal to me. I had my 2016 Camry for years and it never made a noise like that.

I brought the car back to the dealership and took both the service advisor and the service manager on a highway test drive. They both agreed the noise was noticeable and didn’t seem normal.

They said they would check it out, but instead they apparently test drove another 2021 Camry on their used lot. They told me both sides of that one were making the same wind noise (even louder) and said it’s “just a Camry thing,” then sent me on my way.

I’m not totally convinced. It really sounds like wind catching somewhere around the passenger mirror or trim.

Has anyone else experienced this with a 2018–2024 Camry? If so, were you able to fix it?
