She has not mentioned it to me.

However, I am quite sure the radio drowns out most noises, so it might actually have it.

I got in my other daughters car 2 weeks ago and it went like this.......

Paul after 30 feet of driving: "Holy Sh!t, how long have your wheel bearings been making noise?"

Daughter : "Huh? What noise?"

Paul's reaction:

Not hearing that wheel noise is a woman specific thing.
Absolutely no unique noise recognition.....until the part falls off.
Then: "My car is broken"

I'll absolutely 100% disagree with this statement.
My wife can hear and point out every noise that her car makes, points it out, and says fix it!
She swears there is a suspension / wheel squeak in the car and for the life of me I can't hear it, therefor I can't fix it.
In my defense, I am half deaf.
