I had Leith GM, Wake Forest,NC. Look into the problem and they were able to duplicate the problem. They scanned during a test drive and it showed a "Flat line" upline O2 sensor and flagged rich and lean codes. Be advised that this O2 sensor NEVER shot a code as a failure. The O2 sensor was replace and 2 Flash software updates to the ECM and I am golden. I really like this SUV and I hope to dive it till the wheels fall off, knock on wood... or a sensor

Howling noise, was rear differential bearing I was told.

Lifter noise, engine seals/ gaskets starting to leak, transfer case issues - maybe the sequencing switch? Rusting at bottom of lift gate and doors - seems to be starting on the inside of the exterior skin and at the seam between the exterior skin and liner panel. Electrical problem caused by lift gate - maybe a short?, drivers side and review mirror (interior) auto-dimming mode not functioning, drivers side mirror no defroster, ground issue (maybe) that causes static on the AM radio.
