Consumer Description

AM HEARING A LIGHT MOAN ON LIGHT ACCELERATION. I CAN HEAR IT AT ALL RPMS AND SPEED. BUT IS AT ITS LOUDEST AT 40-45 MPH, JUST AFTER IT SHIFTS INTO THE HIGHEST GEAR. IN LAST FEW WKS- IT SEEMS TO FOLLOW THE EXHAUST TO THE REAR. DEALERSHIP DOES NOT SEEM TO VERIFY IT. AM RETURNING FOR NEW REAR STRUTS THAT RATTLE-ON WARRANTY. WHAT SHOULD I TELL THEM WHEN I RETURN? ALSO CAN FEEL IT THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL. *NM
