2023 Tahoe 6.2

I'm experiencing squealing that sounds like it's coming for my be front end at low speeds.

Sometimes it's when I'm slowly accelerating, sometimes it's when I'm breaking, sometimes it's when I'm slightly turning.

Can't figure it out. Sounds like a squealing belt.

Anyone experience anything like this?

I'm stunned at how many problems I've had on a brand new truck. This breaks my heart. You have to try to building something this poorly.

Maybe a silly question, but are you in 2wd or auto? My canyon makes a sound like your describing when going slow speeds when it is in auto. So it only is there in potentially needed conditions otherwise 2wd mode.

So far I only hear the normal transmission shift sound. It whines a little bit at the top of first gear when it shifts.

???

There's up and down squeaking in those videos. The whole video is 3 mins long. I broke them up into 10 second clips when squeaking is happening.

I had a problem On my 21 Tahoe It was something that forced air onto the brakes to clean them of dust.

Hard to tell for me, but it almost sounds like a quick cricket chirp to me, couldnt tell but was the road smooth? Suspension noise perhaps?

It's like a belt or tensioner squealing chirping sound.

But it just started at 2000 miles.

At first I thought it was a suspension component causing it but bumps in the road don't affect it. It's loudest when breaking from 15 mph down.

There's 2 videos there where you can tell from acceleration, but it's really hard to record with the wind noise.
