FAQ
Wheel Bearings & Hubs questions
Can I drive with a noisy wheel bearing?
A failing bearing can become unsafe. It should be inspected promptly, especially if there is play or grinding.
Can bearing noise be confused with tire noise?
Yes. Pete checks both because cupped tires and wheel bearings can sound similar.
Can this work be done as a mobile service?
Many repairs and inspections can be handled where the vehicle is safely parked. If a job requires shop equipment or conditions are unsafe, Pete will be clear about the next best step.
What information helps before an estimate?
The year, make, model, town, symptoms, recent repairs, warning lights, and photos of the area can help narrow down the right parts and next steps.
