I notice slight wind noise from rear spoiler over 65 mph, but nothing out of ordinary from front. I have driven my 19 then 20 and probably 12 service loaners never noticed any noise from front rearvi

I talked to a gm person on live chat about this vehicle making me feel dizzy, ringing in my ears, and hard to focus on the road while driving it. I think it's a combination of the constant wind noise

Yes. My 2021 trail boss has a very aggravating wind noise! It’s sounds to be around the driver and passenger windows, going in to dealership AGAIN tomorrow! Just another problem since the truck was new! Hope the solve issues, I’ll let you know.

I just got my back today. Mine was the mirrors. They replaced one of the end caps and it wasn’t mounted properly and it creates a howling sound. They snapped it back into place and it’s quiet again. Have them look at the mirrors.

Joined this to try and find a solution for this problem. Have a 2021 custom Silverado that has had this issue since I got it. I’ve recorded a video of the noise but I cannot upload it here

I just bought a2019 silverado ld Ltd 32kmiles.  I'm hearing the wind noise from the windsheild like the defrost is on medium low but the system is totally off.  It must be an aerodynamics problem going back to the early 2000s because I had a 2004 sub lt and made me feel dizzy and ears ring.  Now the 2019 makes me dizzy and I can hear the windsheild noise now.  I'm going to remove the bug sheild tomorrow to see if it affects the sound.   I put in ear plugs and then drove, turned off the navigation system and turned off the climate control.  When I took out my ear plugs I could hear it from the windsheild and I could tell it got louder when the wind blew on the truck.  It also has a booming sound when hitting rough roads that makes me feel like I'm inside a bass box with some 90s rap on, boom boom boom boom.  My suburban did the same thing too I called it the thunder dome.  Cheap flimsy steal vibrating in the wind and shity suspension making the cab sound like a drum beating....  never a gm again.... never....

I talked to a gm person on live chat about this vehicle making me feel dizzy, ringing in my ears, and hard to focus on the road while driving it. I think it's a combination of the constant wind noise in the windsheild area, vibrations on the cab itself from turbulent air and the booming bass noise in the cab from hitting expansion joints and bumps at 10 to 50 mph or so. Gm asked if I have gotten medical attention from it and told me to take it into a dealership and see I they can find out why it's doing it.   Pretty sure I'm not the only one experiencing this and it's being swept under the table.  2004 suburban did it and now this 2019 silverado 32k miles.   I think it might actually be doing damage to my hearing.  No issues like this at all with my f150, s10, explorer, lumina, corsica, Pacifica, but they seem smaller in the front, and no noises that remind me of bass associated with bumps on the road.  This silverado feels like driving an 80s Cadillac in the front. And a hard tail Harley in the back end.  The boxy shape and not enough air getting under and around that giant piece of plywood they call the front end of these turds is probably smashing into the windsheild and making turbulent air bang on the windsheild and doors because I can hear it there too.  It will probably cost me $10000 to get out of this pile now.  Gm should be buying this ****** back since it came from a chevrolet dealership.  Instead task a poor service tech to diagnose a problem that a team of scientists might be able to correct.  I said "I'll buy the loan out and crush it." Throw money and time at it and become a human experiment for a poor service tech wtf no no no.. I checked the screws by the mud flaps and around the wheel wells nothing seems out of place or loose.  It's just too bad because it's a very good looking truck but a nightmare to drive.  $42k dollar nightmare after taxes interest and fees.  Gm should be Ashamed of their engineering department and I'd flush that toilet if I was ceo.

      Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.

      I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
