I can't help with the symptoms, but I also have an annoying noise that only occurs with certain driving conditions.
Not exactly safe, but get a passenger to "hang off" (not literally) the cart while you drive on a straight stretch of road, and see if (s)he can tell whether it's coming from the wheels, or the rear end. I don't know if you have a rear seat or not, but removing that and the thin plastic cover over the motor might help also. Your friend may be able to use a piece of thin - 1/2" or so - tubing like a stethoscope to try and pinpoint the cause. If you have any concrete paving where you can do the test drive, that would eliminate a lot of road noise from tires on asphalt.
Keep us posted.
