When i was driving in a parking lot i heard a very high pitch noise. I put my window down to hear what it was. The sound was very concerning especially because i have less than 3k miles on my car. I took it to the dealership they said they weren't sure why it was making the noise... (it stopped about a mile away from the dealership) but they said my car was leaking brake fluid. I would of never known my car was having these issues if i didn't heard that noise. I haven't had the car even for 3 months yet & it already having problems. *tr
