Consumer Description
BUFFETING SOUND AND EAR PRESSURE LIKE THE REAR WINDOWS ARE DOWN, BUT OCCURS ALL THE TIME AT FREEWAY SPEED WITH ALL WINDOWS UP. BOOMING SOUND AT SLOW SPEED. CAN FEEL STRANGE EAR PRESSURE LIKE THE STEREO SUBWOOFER IS PLAYING OVER MOST SMALL ROAD IMPERFECTIONS. THE WHOLE BODY "BOOMS" EXHAUST DROANING SOUND AND EAR PRESSURE. WHEN SUV SWITCHES INTO V4 MODE EXHAUST CREATES A DROANING BACK PRESSURE SOUND WHICH ALSO CREATES PRESSURE IN OCCUPANTS EARS RIDING IN VEHICLE. NOTE* GM BOUGHT BACK OUR 2015 YUKON AND 2015 ESCALADE FOR THESE EXACT PROBLEMS. THE 2016 IS NO BETTER. ALL THE SAME SOUND AND EAR PRESSURE ISSUES. HAVE CONTACTED GM AND STARTED A CLAIM. AT THIS POINT THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO FIX, CORRECT, OR REPLACE THIS VEHICLE. AT THIS POINT I HAVE PURCHASED OVER $220.000.00 IN JUST OVER ONE YEAR FROM GM, THREE NEW SUV'S THEY ALL MAKE THESE NOISES. DURING THIS TIME, HAVE BEEN IN COUNTLESS 2015 LOANER SUBURBAN'S, TAHOE'S, YUKON'S AND ESCALADE'S EVERYONE OF THIS VEHICLES HAS THIS NOISE ISSUE TO SOME DEGREE. SOME BETTER, SOME WORSE.
