While driving, the vehicle began making a very faint whining noise. I stopped at a red light, and then the vehicle had trouble accelerating.

After reading over 100 complaints with the same problem, I'm pretty irate to find out there was a recall, but my VIN# isn't included. The warranty also covers the powertrain up to 60k miles and I'm at 61832, just over the warranty.
