As wheel bearings wear out, you may experience vibrations through either the steering wheel or the entire vehicle. These vibrations can make your driving experience uncomfortable and may worsen with speed.

A wheel bearing comprises steel balls or tapers, commonly called ball bearings or tapered bearings. These bearings are secured within a metal ring known as a race. Positioned within the wheel's core is a hollow metal piece referred to as a hub, where the wheel bearings are housed, facilitating the smooth rotation of your wheels.

Bad wheel bearings can produce a grinding sensation, especially when you turn the steering wheel. It might feel like your vehicle is dragging or rubbing against something, and this effect can become more pronounced at higher speeds or when turning.

Modern vehicles have Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) that relies on data from various sensors, including wheel speed sensors. A bad wheel bearing can disrupt these readings, leading to ABS failure and potentially compromising your vehicle's safety.

If you hear a consistent, rhythmic noise that sounds like growling or humming, it's a strong indicator of a bad bearing. These sounds often increase with speed and may be more noticeable when turning.
