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.

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.

      Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.

      I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
