| 95500 mi | Bought the car used from Honda dealer. Heard a low consistent pitch mechanical like noise from 40mph+. They replaced pass frt tire; said it slipped a belt. Tires were new when we bought it. 2nd trip to dealer under NYS used warranty. Said noise was still present, although quieter. Told dealer to repair and drive before/after. They replaced driver's front tire. Noise got slightly quieter, but still present. After two previous unsuccessful trip, both of which I gave the dealer suggestions for the problem, I took it to a friend who said it was early wheel bearings and a bad motor mount. Dealer finally replaced bearings. |
