  • Automatic transmission

[1] at 128,000 plus miles I heard a grinding sound coming from under the car [2] the mechanic who worked on the vehicle found that all the bearings both front and rear were worn or corroded along with spacing rings on the rear axel. He indicated that they were defective original equipment, that bearings do not corrode or wear out with the mileage that the car had been driven. [3] all the bearings and spacers required replacing.
