is there any good reason y my hub bearing would go bad so soon on my 07 monte carlo ss???? only has 40,000 miles on it????

 

you can hear a growling noise???

or the lights poped up on the dash???

the trac/abs lights are a very commen bs problem on theses cars.

i just replaced mine about a month ago, it was like 122 for the bearing, but i replaced it with the best bearing i could find. didnt want it to happen again.

 

Just to try and help out a bit I change at least 2 wheel bearings a week at work and sometimes more. Gm's aren't the only manufacturer with hub problems and it doesn't matter if it's expensive or cheap it will go bad again eventually. Alway try to avoid driving through big puddles or washing the wheels then letting the car sit. Drive the moisture out so the hubs dry out again. In a previous post I made water intrusion is the top cause for wheel bearing/speed sensor failures.

 

well its started making this noise on my right side and it sound like a had a flat tire!!! so i kept on driving it n a day later a service traction control light came on!!! so i went to work after work coming back home my check engine light came on also!!!! n i took it to the dealer cuz i still have warranty n they told me it was the hub but can i actually trust them????

 

im sure it is the hub expectially if your light came on. did they confirm it was your right pass. hub

 

sorry to steal your thread but if you would let me for a sec. i have had the hub problem a while back.. about 3-4 months ago and it hasnt come on since any ideas what up with this??

 

yeah it was confirmed by the dealers tech!!! after a week of my car being at the dealership!!!!

 

I understand the half shaft axle nut must be torqued properly to reduce failures.

 

after 2 long weeks without my car the dealership finally fixed it and it was the hub that was bad so if any of guys might have the same problem i had double check ur hubs!!!!
