2020 Laramie 1500 with about 25k on the clock.
In the last few weeks, I've started to hear a whining noise, that is getting more obvious. It matches the revs of the engine, and is a high pitched hum or whine - nothing metallic sounding.
My local garage had it in for a routine service and checked out the steering pump, but it doesn't change with steering wheel input, so they feel it may be the alternator - maybe the e-torque system?
It's due to go into the dealership for a warrantee repair in a couple of weeks, but in the meantime, I have some scheduled road trips I need the truck for, that can't be rescheduled. Should I be worried about driving it in the short term? (local garage says I should be fine, but I'm a worrier and wanted to check).
