How often do you replace wheel bearings?

Wheel bearings typically last for many years, but they may need to be replaced if they become damaged or worn out. Some signs that a wheel bearing may need to be replaced include:

* Grinding or humming noise coming from the wheel

* Play or looseness in the wheel when it is turned

* Uneven tire wear

* Car pulls to one side while driving

* Vibration in the steering wheel

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to have your wheel bearings inspected by a qualified mechanic. Depending on the vehicle and the driving conditions, wheel bearings may need to be replaced every 50,000 to 100,000 miles. However, some vehicles may require more frequent replacement. It's always a good idea to consult with your vehicle's manufacturer or a trusted mechanic to determine the recommended maintenance schedule for your specific vehicle.
