SO, I'm new to the Jeep Gladiator. I just purchased a used 2020 Overland yesterday and am experiencing some odd noises that I wan to make sure isn't anything that is above or out of the ordinary for this thing. Ive already noticed the low speed brake squeaking while turning which I'm assuming from other threads is not a major concern.

The concern I have, which I haven't heard on other engines, is a constant low to mid level wooshing sound while giving it a little gas. It almost sounds like the sounds from a cold air intake, but this is 100% factory stock. Does this engine have a natural, air thirsty sound while driving normally?

The Jeep was a previous lease vehicle that had all its required maintenance done over it 65k life so far.

What do you all think? Anyone else have this or notice this on theirs?

Check to make sure your front floor mats aren’t missing the drain plugs.
