Front Wheel/Axle Noise?

[Coop8202]

Have a 2020 Silverado 1500 making an awful grind/whine noise while driving. Starts after warmed up. Had same issue at 28,000 miles now at 56,000 miles. 4wd does not affect noise. I believe dealer replaced front cv axle first time around but cannot find paperwork to verify. See links below (sorry for the wind noise):

Thanks for this. Wondering was this covered under warranty.

one video sounds like the dust shield is rubbing the rotor, does the noise get louder when you turn either way

I thought the same thing, took it all apart and turned out to be the brake wear sensor loose and rubbing/grinding. Video 1 is a different issue being addressed at the dealer Thursday. Sensor is $13 at Autozone.

That’s the same noise I hear. Problem is when I drop off at dealer they will say they can’t hear it because it hasn’t warmed up. Hopefully they can tell.

Hey guys. So my front end noise. Had the mechanic at my Gmail dealership come for a ride. He thought it was brakes until I put in 4x4 and noise stopped. Brought the truck in today and they still say it’s my front brakes need replacing even though the computer says there at 65 percent. Didn’t know why noise stops in 4x4. Very frustrating. Especially when charged 200 dollars.

Sorry to hear that, Mario. Just got off the phone with dealer, they are trying to say its the brake pad wear sensor. I told them I didn't agree, to unplug it and reassess. Picking it up later. Will update

Ok thanks. Let me know how you make out.

Mario, ended up being the brake wear sensor that caused both noises from the videos. I took it out from behind the pad and zip-tied it. No more noise, at least that I can tell, thank God. $13 part at AutoZone. The dealer quoted me $150 to replace it...

Thanks Coop I will give that a try. Will let you know. Have a good one.
