 Description of the problemFront wheel bearing failure, 2004 dodge ram 2500 2wd slt quad cab. 96,000 miles. During front pad inspection, noted how difficult it was to turn left front wheel hub. Had heard something while driving previous day that sounded like a bearing going out. Then inspected right side, it was worse, free spin with grinding noise like it had no grease. After some research and the shock of how expensive the replacement parts are, i discovered that there was a recall for later years (2007) to replace these hubs for lack of grease. For these bearings to fail at this mileage is ridiculous on a part that can't be serviced. I am in the process of replacing both hubs for obvious safety reasons. I will be calling dodge on monday to see if they would care to help me.
