Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: As vehicle warms up, there is a whining noise that comes from the rpms being higher. it almost feels as if it's belt or power steering related, but there is no loss of steering power. also, there seems to be no loss of power anywhere else. when parking the vehicle where a turn is involved, at very low speeds, the noise is "feeling" in the wheel is a bit exaggerated. i took my vehicle to jerome duncan ford (in sterling heights, mi) for service yesterday and they told me that the noise is "normal operating" noise. i don't buy it and told them i'd definitely be back if something went wrong.
