I just bought a 2002 Odyssey. I have noticed a rumble, growling noise coming from the driver's side front wheel area. The noise is only apparent at about 25-30 mph. It sounds like I'm driving over rumble strips in the road. Also, the car seems to be in perfect alignment until I'm driving over 65 mph, then it starts pulling very hard to the left. I don't know if the 2 problems are related.

The Honda dealership where I bought the car put new tires on the front, but not the back -- suggesting the front tires were more worn. Also, don't know if this is related, but trying to give as much info as possible.

When I returned the car to the service department, they couldn't replicate the rumbling sound (it's not consistent), so they couldn't identify the problem. A friend suggested that the struts need replacing (he drove it, and came to this conclusion). Does this sound plausible? Any other ideas on what the problem might be?

Thanks for your help!!
