Information
What does a wheel bearing do?
Wheel bearings protect rotating parts and help them to turn freely. Roller or ball bearings inside the wheel hubs carry the vehicle’s weight. Wheel bearings on newer vehicles are sealed and don’t require a lot of maintenance.
When do bearings need to be replaced?
If the wheel bearings are making grinding, whining or squealing noises, they probably need to be replaced. If bad wheel bearings are not replaced, the wheel could eventually come off the axle. Some auto professionals recommend that wheel bearings be replaced or repacked every 30,000 miles.
What are my options?
Vehicles can be taken to an auto repair shop. An owner can perform the repair, but may need special equipment and tools, and will need to be skilled in working with engines. There are numerous automotive websites that advertise repair services, and others sell wheel bearings and kits.
