Do I need to get the Toyota Highlander checked if I hear strange noises?

I recently purchased a Toyota Highlander, and I've noticed some strange noises coming from the engine. Should I be concerned and get it checked by a mechanic or is it normal?

Yes, it is always a good idea to get any strange noises checked out by a mechanic. It could be a sign of an underlying issue that needs to be addressed before it becomes a bigger problem.

It's normal for a new car to make some strange noises as it's breaking in. However, if you continue to hear the noises or they get louder, it's best to have a professional take a look to be safe.

I had a similar experience with my Toyota Highlander and it turned out to be a loose belt causing the noises. My advice would be to take it to a trusted mechanic for a proper diagnosis.
