SOURCE: wind noise from front window

Sounds like possibly either the door frame or the window is not sealing fully.
Visually check the door seal, and window seals.
Check door sealing by putting a strip of paper in gap and closing door.
Slide out strip, if no resistance found then there is a gap, which can give you noise.
To cure this put your knee behind the door as you close it, and pull in on the top of the door frame, then recheck with the paper till it grips.
Good Luck !

Can excessive wind noise be fixed on driver and passenger side front windows
There is a new service bulletin for a thicker run channel for the drivers side. I got mine fixed yesterday. Its better though not 100%. Definitely bring to dealer and have them do it. Techline at Kia knows about it.

Yes it can but it takes a trained technician to ID what exactly is the source of the noise as well as special equipment.

My 1998 Hyundai Elantra produces a strong grinding noise from the left front wheel. Whenever I drive below 50MPH the car drives smoothly, but any speed above that will produce a very rough grinding noise...
probly a bad bearing-remove wheel and take out the worn one and regrease it-a haynes book sold at discount parts is a must

I own a 2006 Chevy Cobalt and the steering wheel shakes uncontrollably when the mile exceeds passed 50MPH. There is also a noise present that sounds like a wind tunnel of some sort. Thanks!
You need to get the tires checked out.You could just need a balance on them.As far as the noise.It is hard to tell you what to look for without actually hearing the noise.Does it sound like it is outside the vehicle,front,rear,tires,does it change at different speeds,does it do it all the time,warm cold?These are the things you have to find out.Hope this helps.Good luck.

Wind Buffeting on 2010 Toyota Camry
that is just the way the car is built, the newer cars with the aerodynamics set the way they are will have a buffering sound if only front or only rear windows are open, like you said the only way to negate that noise is to open the front windows a crack, its a characteristic of the vehicle, many new cars do that.

Loud whistling noise when travelling at higher speeds (ie above 50mph)
I had a problem with a whistling car after 50 mph and it turned out to be the front window gasket. I put silicone on the trim and problem solved.
