problem #1

Jul 042008

Civic 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 5,700 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Honda Civic. While driving 35 mph, the contact heard a howling noise coming from the front end of the vehicle. He took the vehicle to the tire shop to have the tires rotated, which did not remedy the issue. The contact went to the dealer and they test drove the vehicle. The dealer stated that the wheel bearing was defective and failed. The wheel bearing was replaced on the passenger side; however, the contact was informed that the wheel bearing on the driver side was also defective and needed to be replaced. The dealer ordered the second bearing for the driver's side repair. The manufacturer had not been notified. The current mileage was approximately 5,900 and failure mileage was approximately 5,700.
