    Is there a video of what this sounds like? I don't believe that I have it, but I am curious to hear it.

    Who knows...
    If it's anything like the 2nd Gen howl, you might get a fix by 2024; if you're still under warranty.

    The fix is pretty straightforward. Go to the dealership. Another dealership (Ford, nissan, Subaru, Chevy) and trade it in for a different vehicle. That fixed my howl immediately. 4k miles later it's still quiet as a mouse.

    I rolled the dice and traded for exactly the same truck. Only difference is its gray instead of orange. No more noise.

    Yup. As soon as I put BFG's on my truck, the howl became MUCH less noticeable. :)

    My 2017 came from the Factory with the Lower Control Arms plugged so the TSB may not apply to all.
