Wheel Bearing Failure

If your hearing noises such as humming, snapping, clicking, grinding when the vehicle is in motion, it is highly likely that your wheel bearing requires replacing. You may also feel shudder and vibration.

The average life of a wheel bearing is from 75,000 to 150,000 miles.

If your ABS light is illuminated on the dashboard and or the ABS does not work and or the traction light is on, this could all be down to a failing wheel bearing.

Takeaways

  • The most common symptom with a bad wheel bearing is a loud noise coming from the vehicle’s tire or wheel. It will sound like metal grinding on metal and will get louder as the vehicle goes faster.
  • A potential downfall of a bad wheel bearing is your tires wearing out faster with signs of uneven tire wear.
  • ABS /Traction Warning lights are illuminated
