Anyone else have excessive rattles in the back of their 2021 Tahoe? I can't tell if it is coming from the 2nd row or where. Its terrible though.

The first thing you need to do is. Take everything you put into it, out.
Then go for a ride
after that have someone ride in the back seat and move from side to side.
Believe me- I have done that. Some noises are coming from the passenger side 2nd row seat. Some are coming from the very back. Sounds like some are under the cargo area and some are coming from where the jack is stored. I have had 3 Tahoes, a suburban, a Yukon Denail and a Yukon XL Denali and none have been this noisy.

Who doesn't hate rattles especially in a new vehicle. How do they make them to rattle two months after we buy them? Something I noticed from a test drive was the ultrathin plastic in the cargo area. A knuckle test sent it vibrating.

Mine has a rattle as well. After having my wife drive the other day and me sitting in the back, I realized it’s coming from the glass on the back tailgate. Every little bump in the road has it rattling. I have 2 recalls that need to be fixed, so I figure I will mention it then.

I've fixed so many rattles that I've lost count. It's pretty darn quiet now.
For the rear hatch glass; I added white lithium grease to the latch and its perfect now. Dealer could not figure it out because the rubbing/rattle was coming from this latch and radiating up the glass. It sounded as if it were coming from the rear spoiler on top.

As if my rattles aren’t bad enough now I had to have it towed today. Started shaking and shuttering. My engine light started flashing. It was making a loud noise underneath. Service messages were coming on the display. I’m so disappointed!
