I would have to say on my car this isn't a normal sound. I would say it sounds more like an abnormal squeak of a mechanical component more than anything.

My issue mainly with the noise is that it did not occur for the first few hundred miles. The deal/manuf was going to have a long row to hoe if they insisted this was a "normal" sound... it's loud enough on my car for others to say "is that your fan belt making that squeal?".

I bought the car without a squeak, drove it for 11 miles in two test drives on the same day including 70mph out on the interstate without any sound and then hundreds of miles after purchasing... I'm sorry for them that I'd have had to insist that I was not informed of this nor did the car exhibit such behavior and that it's unacceptable and insist they make amends...

BUT...

they are going to do the repair... and if it goes away then I'll be satisfied... and now they've admitted it to be an issue... they can't really backtrack and hold much ground.
