sport and i had only owned it for 3 months! if there's anyone out there
who knows of any accidents or malfunctions of any kind of toyotas,

For some reason my 2003 Chrysler Neon beeps when I reach 120km/h.  I
have checked the manual to see if it is a type of safety device, but

My 2006 Lexus ES 330 makes low-level howling, humming noise from the front
right side. It's not loud but it's there. I just want to get some knowledge
on this issue before bringing the car to a dealer to have them look at it.
Here's a list of things that I found about the noise.
