Hi everyone,

My Qx4 has started to make some usual noises. It sounds like the rear tire is rolling over or catching on something with each rotation. It makes a thump, thump, thump, thump sounds and increases in frequency as my speed increases. Anyone have any ideas?

Tire imperfection or perhaps a misbalanced wheel?

Seperated belt in the tire, let me guess do you have Bridgestones?
