About This Service
Wheel bearings let your wheels spin smoothly while carrying the weight of the vehicle. As they wear, they begin to hum or growl, and eventually develop play that affects steering, braking, and tire wear.
Because road and tire noise can sound similar, we road test and lift-inspect the vehicle to confirm which bearing is at fault. On many vehicles the bearing is part of a hub assembly that also carries the ABS sensor, so a failing bearing can trigger ABS or traction control lights.
We replace bearings and hub assemblies with quality parts and torque everything to specification.
A badly worn bearing can overheat and, in extreme cases, allow the wheel to separate — so it's not a noise to ignore.
