On 6/22, the right wheel bearing assembly failed while traveling ~20 mph. As a result, a fire occurred. I put the fire out in our driveway at home with a water hose. Significant damage occurred to the right wheel assembly, bearing housing, 1/E axle, rotor, caliper, brake pads, emergency brake, etc...luckily, were close to home and were not traveling 70 mph. No other vehicles were involved and there were no injuries as my wife and I were able to get all of our children out of the Expedition safely. Our Expedition is a 2004.
