2014 Ford Escape Front - 2014 ford escape front wheel bearing
If your steering wheel shakes as you drive down the road, it might be because of bad wheel bearings, but this issue can happen from various other part failures too. So look to see if your vehicle is showing multiple symptoms, and if you are not sure, our experts can help identify the source of the issue.
Dichta
Bad wheel bearings can cause the steering wheel to vibrate, and usually, it gets worse as you gain speed. Another way to know which side is failing is if the vibrations and noises stop happening during left or right turns only.
PTFEoil seal
As your wheel bearings fail, they tend to lose their grease and lubrication, making them create grinding noises. If you hear those noises, make sure to schedule a service appointment through our Service Centre before further damage occurs to other components.
This machined low-torque seal lip design extends seal life within its pressure limits. It is capable of handling extreme temperature, aggressive media, high surface speeds, and can even run dry. The soft seal OD eliminates damage to housings manufactured from expensive metals. An integrated O-ring on the OD of the seal serves as an anti-rotation device and provides positive static sealing between the seal and the bore. Typical applications are dust/dirt excluders, balanced spindles, conveyers. Small quantities are available in 2-4 days.
Since wheel bearings are what your tires spin on, they can reduce your acceleration as they fail. Due to poor lubrication or rust, wheel bearings can start to perform worse, and they won't let your vehicle acceleration freely.
A sign of worn-out wheel bearing is abnormal tire wear, and it will usually be uneven, indicating an issue. There are many reasons why tires unevenly wear out, but this is possible when you have a worn-out wheel bearing.
