I am hearing this sound while driving, and thought maybe it was the tires since my other car made a similar sound that was the tires, as it changed when I had them rotated. So I had the tires rotated on this one, and the noise is still there up front. Just wondering if its normal drivetrain noise with the Ecvt. Does yours make a noise like this in EV mode regardless of speed? I think the title best describes the sound, its not HIGH pitched, but higher than I can imitate. I have an appointment scheduled for after the holiday to have the bumper repainted, and was thinking of having them check it out, but if others hear it too, I wont bother.
