Heard loud noise coming from front part tires while driving. I knew it wasn't the brakes. Took it to my regular mechanic and was told it was a bad wheel bearing. $400 later it was replaced. This is not my first problem with this car. 1st problem: Blower motor went, 2nd: Water pump went, 3rd: Was told ignition column needs to be replaced, 4th: Shoe over timing belt wore away because of water pump problem. There have been numerous other problems including replacement of the brakes. My car only has 53,000 miles on it and was bought brand new in June of 2000. For the money I have spent on it, I could've had a Lexus!
