Why Hiddenite drivers book mobile wheel bearing replacement
Hiddenite is gem-mine country west on US-64. Plenty of gravel and no shop for miles, so we come to you. We've done plenty of wheel bearing replacement jobs in this part of Alexander County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.
What's included
A worn wheel bearing makes a hum or growl that gets louder with speed and changes when you swerve left or right. Left alone it can overheat, take out the ABS sensor, and eventually seize. Most modern vehicles use bolt-in hub assemblies, which makes this a clean mobile repair.
- Road-test and confirm which corner
- Remove the wheel, brake, and hub assembly
- Install a new hub bearing assembly with the ABS sensor
- Torque the axle nut and lug nuts to spec
- Clear ABS codes and road-test
Signs it's time
- Humming or growling that rises with speed
- Noise changes when turning or swerving
- ABS light with a wheel speed sensor code
- Play when rocking the wheel top to bottom
- Uneven tire wear
