I first had to have front wheel bearing replaced at 79,000 miles Oct 2012, now they are bad again at 127,000 miles. I've never had to replace a set of wheel bearings on a vehicle let alone two times in this short of distance, "miles". Chrysler won't replace them but they have a service bulletins saying they will but it doesn't directly affect my VIN # so I'm out of luck to over $1000 to fix it myself.
