Hey all,
I’m going to be honest here, I was a little skeptical getting my ‘16 1.4t Sonic, but I must say I love this car more than any other I’ve had. It’s my daily, and the mpg is pretty decent, which was a big key factor in getting this (I drive over 100 miles a day round trip to work).
I got this car a few months ago at roughly 47k miles. Everything has been going well, until recently I’ve had a few minor issues...or at least I hope they’re minor.
As I live in Jasper, Georgia, the roads here are, well...a mess. I’ve noticed my car is pulling left and right at 55+ mph, so I’d like to think it’s a alignment issue. In addition, every time I accelerate from a stop or 1st gear, there’s a whining noise from the front passenger side of the engine bay. It almost sounds like air escaping, but high pitched. Almost metallic. It does it during the last “sections” of 1st and 2nd gears. It stops at 3 through 6. It’s an auto as well.
In all honesty, I joined the forum initially for design and mod ideas, but now that I’m having issues, might as well get some insight
Other than that I love this car, and plan on doing as many mods as my bills will allow.
