What is the chance that GM would fix the vibration/buffeting issue in 2017 models?

With the potential of getting a problem child this high, I cannot take the chance. I have tested a couple and one was terrible. Did not notice anything in the other Denali. However, if it has a good potential of on setting at a later date, I have no choice to pass. Very disappointed - was hoping this would be the obe bring me back to American made vehicles.

Have a lot of people been having these issues with the 2015 Yukon Denali with 22" wheels or is it mostly Yukon XL and Suburbans?

As of yesterday, no buffering issues with 21,*** miles. I added Norcal's 2/4 drop kit and put on 24"s last night and still no issues,

I'll be checking once they arrive along with the '18 expedition/navigator. Hopefully GM quietly resolved the issue.

I am a new member here-trying to do my homework prior to deciding to purchase a Tahoe or Yukon.

Can you all recommend a test drive procedure to see if the vehicle has the problems that you all have raised in this thread?

Thank you!

I test drove a 2016 and 2017 Escalade ESV. The 2016 would vibrate from 45 mph+ The 17, not so much. I noticed a slight shimmy at 75, but at 90 it was driving smooth as glass. So I ended up coming home in a 17 last week
