Description of the problem | While travelling on a highway (straight away) my left front wheel bearing let go causing tire and rotor to disconnect from vehicle causing significant damage. After having the vehicle towed to the nearest dealership they discovered that the front right wheel bearing was in very bad shape, needing replacement. Vehicle has under 65000 miles on it. Previous bearings on dodge ram trucks have been recalled for similar issues. There was no previous vibration or steering issue until the wheel came loose. |
