Weird Noise

So a few months back I was driving and slipped on some ice and hit a curb. I had the mazda dealership replace the front right control arm and they performed an alignment. Ever since then, I've noticed a whooshing/rubbing sound coming from the rear. The sound only is heard when driving 70mph +. It doesn't sound like the tires, beacause the sound is not consistant with the speed. The sound is not as fast as the speed of the tires. I can also feel a virbration under the car. There is no sound while driving 0-70mph. Any thoughts???
 
If its coming from the rear of the car I doubt it has anything to do with your previous accident since it was a problem with the front of the car. It could be a number of thingsit may be something with the rear brake, or something with the AWD in back there.Im guessing it has more to do with one of the rear wheels/brakes than with the AWD systemcould be a suspension issue to, but I doubt it. Best bet is to just take it to the dealer and let the warranty do its job.
