There is a tsb for control arm whistle they just put a plug in the hole but might be worth looking into.

^ this is most likely what it is. Mine did the same thing. They plugged the arm hole and hasn’t happened again.
 
If it sounds like the noise is coming from the mirror it is most likely the door seal. My truck did the same thing but the dealer was able to fix it. There is a TSB for this issue.
