HELP PLEASE: Had to replace wheel bearing three times in last week.
 

So I got into a crash about two weeks ago. I hydro-planed on the highway and hit the wall, damage on the car has been fixed and drove all the way from Dallas to San Antonio for College and the car seemed fine the whole time but when I got there my front left tire was making a sort of pulsing squeaking noise so I took it into the break shop in town and they said it was the wheel bearing. So they changed it out and I drove it and I sounded fine until I drove for about 30 minutes and it was making an even worse noise. They ended up replacing it two more times and it has happened again and again. This last time they even ordered the orignal part from toyota and the it's still starting to go bad AGAIN!!! any ideas on what it could be!! they claim that there isnt and warping or anything that could be screwing it up and that its just the part but its been 3 times now!! PLEASE HELP!!! ANY IDEAS!!

Their claim is wrong. Something is bent, twisted, warped or otherwise misshapen. Exactly what is can not be diagnosed over the Internet. Take it to another shop and have them check it out.

Ok thanks.

Sorry can't tell you more but there are probably a dozen things it could be.

Did you get an alignment?

Fine, ill be that guy.

If the problem keeps persisting, or gets worse. They did not do a good job. They probably have no idea whats wrong. Take it to a different shop.

Hey! I was already that guy. Now you are that other guy.

If they did indeed change out the wheel hub and you are having issues still, you need to replace the entire spindle assembly.
