What are the Signs of a Failed Wheel Bearing?
2
Wheel bearing is a highly critical part of 2
components. Such as

• Driver-axle
• Steering assembly

3
Allow the tires and wheels to spin freely without
any heat buildup.
4
Wheel bearings last for a long time, but
eventually, they will

• Loose lubricity
• Wear out
• Need replacement

5
Even become loose from wear inside the wheel hub
assembly.
6
Below warning signs indicate the failed wheel
bearing of car.

Unusual Tire Wear
8
Mechanical problem can lead to abnormal tire wear
including
9

14
Progressively get worse when you try to
accelerate the car.
15
Unusual Noise
16
Worn out wheel bearing can cause unusual noise in
the car such as

• Loud grinding
• Loud roaring

17
Caused due to the excess heat built up inside the
wheel bearing.
18

both sides at the same time.
19
Play In Wheels
20
If the wheel bearing is damaged, then the wheel
of a car will wobble.
21
Due to worn out bearing, the tire/wheel assembly
moves back and forth.
