I have had 7-8 new Tahoes and Yukons in the last several years. My new 2019 SLT Yukon has to be the worst riding and loudest one I’ve had!

It sounds like I have 100 lbs of air in the tires and no shocks? It rumbles and bumps and generally has lots of road noise. Almost sounds like I drive on the highway rumbles strips most of the time?

Has anyone else experienced this type of issues or it just me? Thanks for any feedback or suggestions.

Thanks for the comment. Mine was pretty quite for the first 12000 miles.

Ah, I was thinking it was like that from day one. Which tires does it have? Some of them get really noisy once they get some wear on them.

Thanks again. Mine has the 20” Contential.

Don't have a Yukon, and coming off 12 Escalade's I purchased a 19' RST tahoe and then sent it to callaway, supercharged and lowered, replaced the stock 22's with Forgeline 22's, the ride is no rougher than my Escalade's, this is the quietest SUV I've ever owned, and it's supercharged and full callaway exhaust, on the highway it's like my benz or jag, it's fantastic so far. :)

And it's rough with 20" wheels, on 22's it would be horrible. Is there oil you can see leaking on any shocks? Any dealer feedback on the problem?
Sorry, no oil that I can see. Thanks for the response.

Does your SLT have the magnetic ride control?

My Yukon rode like crap on the factory 20” continentals. When I put 22” on it the ride actually got better with less vibration. Go figure. I will never own another continental tire.

If it has the magnaride suspension, first thing I would do (even before going to dealer) is unplug all the magnaride shit up front, then go for a test drive and see if rides a lot better.

My 2016 Tahoe LT rode okay with the 20 inch Continental tires but rides a million times with better with the 20 inch Michelin Defenders.

Thanks for the input. The dealership changed out my Contentinal tires for a new set of Michelin tires. A good bit of my rumbling noise went away. I still of enough to still bother me!!
