That is a very vague question. Are you hearing a noise while driving? Is it only at a specific speed or at all speeds? Is it while turning hard in a parking lot? Is it only on one side of the back or just in the rear in general?

I am getting a droning sound with my 2014 Forester. Just turned 70000 miles. New tires and rear brakes last fall. Front brakes a few months ago. The droning sound changes with speed. Any ideas before I take it to a service shop and get mislead and charged lots for what isn’t wrong. Have had bad luck with some dealers. ☹️
