I bought a Honda Jazz with a 3-month RAC warranty - does this waive my rights under the Sale of Goods Act?

I took delivery of a 2003 Honda Jazz 1.4 automatic on 9 July 2010. Whilst driving down the A12 at 60mph I opened the rear offside window when I heard a terrible noise and a heavy drumming sound. I checked the car and couldn't find any reason for it, so I made my way home. When I purchased the car I was told I would receive a 3-month RAC warranty which I was asked to sign. Does this warranty waive any rights I have under the Sale of Goods Act?

No, it doesn't waive any rights. If you've got a three-month warranty, get the car checked out under that first. It could be something trivial.
