driver's side. Wheel bearing maybe? I assumed already that it may be the wheel bearing, but I also noticed that the tire on the passenger side began losing air pressure unusually
faster than the other wheels. Thoughts would be a great help. Thanks in advance!
 
Your Problem Sounds Like It Could Be A Couple Of Different Things. It Could Be A Tire, I Would Suggest Checking That First. If You Take It In To Be Checked Out By A Tech, Be Aware That Some Shops Will Hit You Hard In Your Wallet, Find A Good Honest Technician. Take It To Your Local Tire Store To Have Your Tires Checked. If They Come In To Tell You Where Your Problem Lies, Tell Them You Would Like To See The Problem For Yourself. Make Sure That They Tell You What Has To Be Done Before They Do Any Work. After The Work Is Completed, And You Have Left The Business, Check Behind Them For Yourself To Insure That You Haven't Been Taken Advantage Of. Good Luck
 
Check that tire and make sure it has no steel belts coming through the rubber. What you may be hearing is the belts grinding against the pavement and then it could be a wheel bearing.
 
Wheel bearings are so common on those Gms, I probably do one a week at my shop. Before you do a bearing check your tires because if the tread is feathered(worn at an angle) it can be loud going down the road
