Purchased my 2022 about a week ago. It currently has roughly 300 miles on it. I’ve noticed a vibration sound coming from the middle-rear of the vehicle. This sound appears when traveling at all different speeds whether under power or coasting. Oddly enough I notice it the most at 28MPH? If I put the vehicle in neutral while coasting, the sound stops.

It’s hard to describe the sound but it’s like one window is open or a really low constant bass sound. I’ve read the other threads about possible driveline issues. Not sure if that’s what I’m experiencing. I have a service appointment for 12/27.

Anyone else in the same boat as me?

Did some more testing this evening. The vibration is even noticeable now when not in motion and switching from Park to Reverse/Drive.

I have this exact issue! A bass type sound low frequency, almost annoying to ears. When I swap to drive and park it's obvious. But it does it quite a bit here and there at lower speeds.
Did you ever figure it out? It is driving me mad how much I hear it now.
Took it to 2 different dealerships and they both said it was normal operation of the vehicle. It sounds a bit extreme but it annoys me so much I’m looking to trade the car already. Just don’t want to take a $10k hit from when I bought it in November

You’ll have to let me know what they say. Hoping there’s some fix or resolution
