Wheel bearing wear and disappointed in failure rate


Recommended Posts

I owned an 07 for a few years. This helped me learn about front hub assemblies in those vehicles that lasted around 75k for the Motorcraft parts. Cheaper knock offs usually lasted fewer miles (40-50k or so). Those hub assemblies run around $225 EACH and are replaced up front on the explorer when wheel bearings need replacing.

 

After doing a couple sets of those - I started shopping for a different kind of vehicle to drive.

Rather disappointed the wheel bearings on my 2011 Ford Edge Limited only made it to 198,000 miles then began to fail. Guess I will have to replace them all. ;)

Oh man, and I've already got 100k on my MKX. Now I'll lay awake again tonight wondering when my bearing are going to fail. Thank goodness for this group, else I'd never have known about the bearings failing at 200k. Just one thing after another.
