NHTSA complaint #11355507, filed 2020-09, 58,131 miles“My 2016 Yukon denali has a vibration problem, which I believe is caused by the magnetic ride control. The vibration does not speed up, nor slow down, depending on speed. It is, however, more noticeable when there is any road imperfection. The Gmc service dept.
