You must have had some other issues like alignment problems, etc for that to happen so quickly.
I had one wheel bearing go bad in my last car and I did a u-turned and slid over to the other lane. No cars were around and no damage but scared me to death. Quote:

No. The bad wheel bearing locked up so only one one front wheel turned and it was a rear wheel drive so the car slid over into the other lane. Scared the crap out of me. |

Not judging. I've learned my best lessons the hard way but didn't it make a heluva racket for a while before it got to that point? Do you have a loud exhaust or noisy tires?

Do you have extended warranty? Didn't think wheel bearings were part of powertrain warranty?

It wasn’t making the loud rumbling sound yet or I wasn’t paying attention. It was on my 350z which was a loud car and had a bad toe in alignment problem from the factory which I think caused the wheel bearing to go bad. Got two sets out free tires out of it because the dealer couldn’t get the alignment right.
