The wheel hub’s job is to connect the axle and wheel and to allow the wheel to spin smoothly. Most of the time a vehicle is traveling in a straight line, which puts only minimal stress on the wheel bearing.

This causes the bearing to wear faster.

In the early stages of bearing failure, you may hear the failure before you can feel it using techniques listed above.

Like all the components under the car, wheel hubs are continually exposed to water, dirt, dust, and other contaminants. They will corrode over time. Cars that live in cold climates are subject to salt and magnesium chloride. If you drive in the rain, some water may splash on the components in the undercarriage. But your wheel hubs get bathed in water. Wheel hubs are very exposed to the elements, so corrosion may cause problems sooner than it would for other components under the car.

If you notice these symptoms during your test drive, it can’t hurt to physically inspect each wheel hub assembly on the vehicle. To do this:
