While driving from speed 10 - 70 MPH, the car makes a loud roaring sound. I had my tires rotated and getting ready to get them rotated again, so I don't believe that's it -- pretty even wear, it seems like it is more along the lines of RPMs -- not shifting correctly. It really sounds like the engine is continually revving up and doesn't completely shift.

check and see if your tires are cupped. when was the last time you had a alignment? also check for a worn out wheel bearing.

Tires were rotated just a little over 4,500 miles ago and will be getting them rotated this week -- alignment was done about 15,000 miles ago -- but didn't think about the wheel bearing --I'll check it too --thank you!
