Hello,
I would appreciate any input on the issue I'm having on my 2016 Patriot CVT ~60K Miles.
There is a vibration that is felt when under medium/heavy load. Once I let go of the accelerator/pedal the noise stops (i.e. cruising speed).
If I slightly accelerate at full highway speed I do not hear the noise but once I give it a little more gas I can hear the buzz/vibration/whine noise.
The transmission does not slip as far as I can tell (not sure if CVTs are known for slipping or can slip).
I recently changed the front lower motor mount because the car was slightly vibrating at idle. The vibration reduced noticeable now there is only a very minor vibration at idle sometimes.
Not sure what this can be.

Thank you.
