2020 GMC Yukon — steering wheel vibration only at one highway speed

PistonScout650Community StarterApr 25, 20262020 GMC Yukon DenaliColumbus
2020 GMC Yukon Denali, about 15,500 miles. The car is smooth around town, but there is a noticeable steering-wheel vibration in a narrow highway speed range. It gets better again above that speed. Tires look normal at a glance. What would you test first before replacing anything? Interested in real owner experience more than guesses.

I wouldn't throw parts yet. If a shop can't duplicate it on the 2020 GMC Yukon, bring a video plus freeze-frame data, not just a story. Save the big job until that test fails. This is from a 2020 GMC Yukon in Columbus with 15,500 miles. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

This is usually cheaper to test than to guess. If a shop can't duplicate it on the 2020 GMC Yukon, bring a video plus freeze-frame data, not just a story. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. This is from a 2020 GMC Yukon in Columbus with 15,500 miles. Keep sale price, fees, and rate as three different conversations. Not driving it hard until I know more.

If it were in my driveway, two 2020 GMC Yukons can feel identical and have different causes, so measure before you copy someone else's repair. That's the branch I'd chase this week. If you share a photo of the worksheet, easier to sanity-check. I'd rather be boring and correct. If that fails I'll eat the diagnostic fee.

OP update: scanned the 2020 GMC Yukon again and still only have the one pending code, no new lights. If the story changes I'll post the new data.
