Impala

  • Automatic transmission
  • 6,000 miles
Rear wheel hubs and bearings are making noise. Inside the hub there is a bearing which holds the tire/wheel on, and bolts to the rear axle were causing the problem. This wheel assembly was already replaced at 60,000 miles. The ABS light and service traction system light comes on and off. Consumer has had the bearings replaced 2 months ago at consumer's expense. Currently, the bearings are in need of replacement after on 6,000 or 7, 000 miles.
