Default wheel bearings-front

any one ever had problems with wheel bearings on the 2006? i am getting a lot of humming coming off the front, similar to as if you had snow tires on the car. its worse on cornering. very noticable on smooth pavement.

perhaps only coincidently, one rt owner here already had the front ones changed out at low mileage by dealer. maybe it was limited to certain runs.

I would hope it's like you say limited to a run. Probably a bad lot of berrings or an issue with assembly.

dealer rotated tires and the noise went away. i don't know if he did anything to the bearings. is there anyway to repack the new bearings, as we did with the old? and say make the noise go away temporarily?
