Was told by 2 different shops that my front left bearing was rough and the right front bearings were loose. There was a very low volume roaring sound that went away after replacement. I suspect this repair was caused by towing/stopping my 6200 lb boat and tandem trailer because the trailer brakes have been out for months. The trailer brakes are now in working order.
I drive a 2003 Chevy Avalanche 1500, 5.3L, 2wd, 3.73 gear ratio. Milage is about 75,000 miles.
What would cause the front wheel bearings to go bad? If it was caused by towing/stopping the heavy trailer, what other mechanical problems do i need to be ready for?
Thanks,
Paul
