    JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HEARD OR HAD PROBLEMS WITH THERE WHEEL BEARINGS? MY RIGHT FRONT BEARING WENT OUT A FEW DAYS AGO AND NOW IS GOING INTO FORD TO BE REPLACED AND THEY OWE ME TWO NEW FRONT TIRES AS WELL. JUST CURIOUS. MY CAR ONLY HAS 35,654 MILES TOO A LITTLE EARLY FOR WHEEL BEARINGS!

    What are the indicators that they are going out? A growling noise?

    Thanks!

    MINERALGSVT,

    I could hear a thumping at low speed - and the tires were cupping - thats why ford bought me two new

    the IRS was mis-alligned by over 1.5 inches (got two new rear tires for this)

    car has only 14,000 miles now - I need to drive it more
