    Engine started making a whining noise, mostly when turns were taken. I waited awhile until it just seemed to be getting louder, then continuous. The repair was done under warranty, however since they said that few cars are getting beyond 36,000 miles without needing a new one, when will this have to be replaced again? *nm

I started having trouble about a month after it was purchased and it was taken back to…
