Just yesterday after work, I fired up my car listed above and noticed a humming noise when I was driving on the highway. Sort of sounded like an airplane almost. I took a video of the sound, and was hoping to get someone's take on it before I bring it in to get it checked out. I bought the car from a Chevrolet dealership just two months ago.

Hello, I'm Danny.

Your video did not show up here as an attachment. What we usually ask people to do when it comes to sound issues is for them to make a video with their cell phone and upload it here. It helps with a video to diagnose sounds. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
