Whining/Hissing from air bag

[blaster9]

Anyone notice while the car is running, a high-pitched whining/hissing sound coming from the wheel well area (possibly air bag) on driver’s side? Just got my truck back from dealer yesterday and noticed it.

Might be the Electric Power Steering?

Is this in the front or the rear? When I approach the vehicle and it wakes up, I'm getting a sound from the rear that sounds like a cat trying to puke. I was already wondering if it was suspension related...

lol it's coming from driver's front wheel well. RE jeep Cares = It did not make this noise until i got it BACK from the dealer lol. I'm going to check on it again at all 4 corners and see if its still there.

We just brought our GCL home lastnight and as we waited in the vehicle we would hear a random occurring hissing noise coming from the dash area in general. I turned the A/C off and I believe it stopped. I’ll have to double check again today but the noise came on for a few seconds and then stopped… then a minute or so later it would happen again. If it is the A/C then it’s odd … it almost sounded like a soft static.

If this sound continues for you, we recommend a visit to your dealer. They can work to pinpoint where it's coming from and provide any repair steps. If you need assistance while there, send us a private message.

To clarify, it sounds a lot like getting your teeth cleaned...that high pitched micro-drill sound. it's only coming from the driver's side air suspension/bag area. It almost seems like it could be a super small pin hole meant to purge air out if it's overinflated or something

I hear this as well. does anyone else have this issue or is it unique? can other GCL owners comment to confirm or deny? Thanks!

Spoke to my dealer today and they claimed noises from the suspension are all normal because it's a mechanical system. I really don't think they know what htey're talking about.
