There are several recalls out on my model of vehicle in which my vehicle has the same symptoms but when I run a check on the year VIN it comes back with no recalls. How can I make sure that my repairs should be covered under the recalls.

Vehicle started making loud noises when turning wheel to left, but because the vehicle wanted to pull to the right, the wheel was almost always turned to the left. Thought it was a problem with the alignment, but after I hit a deer, my vehicle was taken in for body repairs and they informed me that the problem was with my hubs and wheel bearings on both sides of the vehicle and that I was very lucky to have hit the deer because my tires would have likely fallen off very soon. I have read many stories on this site almost exactly like mine. GM needs to do something about this as my car has always been well maintained and there is no reason this should have happened so soon.

My vehicle is a 1999 GMC Jimmy. It has 65000 miles and I am the original owner and primary driver. The front hubs/bearings have both been replaced in the last 9 months, one at 50,600 miles, and nowone at 65,000 miles. The problem was not fixed by replacing the hub/bearings units. I was told yesterday that both of the front lower ball joints and an idler arm need to be replaced in addition to the hub/bearing. The shop working on the vehicle indicated that this was not normal at 65,000 miles, and that the condition of the ball joints made the vehicle unsafe to drive. I called GM and got absolutely no support from the district service representative since all of my repairs were not done at a GM dealership. The reason I stopped going to GM dealerships was poor service, inflated prices and recommendations for work to be done that wasn't necessary.

Wheel noise could be heard during normal driving; noise became louder during a right turn especially at 40 mph. Mechanic found the right front wheel bearing needed replaced, for a $550 repair cost. This Jimmy only has 34,000 miles, but is out of warranty due to time.

The engine light illuminated several times, because the air pump froze, the right front wheel bearing, fuel pump, and rear differential bearings were replaced.

I bought this 1999 GMC Jimmy used with 33000 miles. I noticed after buying that when you turned loose of the wheel that the vehicle would swerve to the right. Thinking I had an alignment problem I took it to my tire dealer and that's when he told me that the wheel bearing assembly needed to be replaced. Also he told me that this vehicle was not the only GM vehicle he had seen with that problem. After replacing the humming, pulling to the right wheel bearing assembly, the problem was corrected. I have noticed on several sites that this is a common problem that GM will not admit to or fix. Bottom line is I should not have to replace that part at 37000 miles. Also the dealers mechanics should have caught it instead of playing dumb like they don't know this problem exist.

Left front wheel bearing is failing. Wheel could come off vehicle in event of failure. Hub unit is a sealed assembly and cost to repair is $600 per side. Know three other people with same failure. Two dealerships and one independent repair facility confirm this failure is common to this vehicle. I have never had wheel bearings fail and certainly not before the tires wore out.

The permanently sealed wheel bearing "froze up" causing the wheel to shear off. This was according to the dealer.
