Long Beach, Bixby Knolls Replace Wheel Bearings

Are you looking to get your wheel bearings replaced? Orozco’s Auto Service in Long Beach, Bixby Knolls, provides essential assistance to drivers who may not be aware of the importance of their vehicle’s wheel bearings and the risks of failure. Failing to recognize the significance of this critical component can lead to costly repairs. Understanding the function of wheel bearings and recognizing when repairs are necessary is crucial, and Orozco’s ASE-certified mechanics can help.

Wheel bearings are crucial in reducing friction and allowing wheels to spin smoothly. They are housed in small rings within the wheel hub assembly and come in two common types: ball bearings and roller bearings. Roller bearings are small cylinders that are easily accessible for repairs but are vulnerable to dirt and grime. Ball bearings, on the other hand, are sealed and protected from dirt and grit, but if something goes wrong, they must be entirely replaced as they cannot be serviced.

The lifespan of wheel bearings typically ranges between 75,000 and 100,000 miles, depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. Symptoms of failing wheel bearings include unusual noises such as clicking, grinding, or humming, uneven tire wear, loose steering, vibrations in the steering wheel, and wheel lock. Additionally, a dashboard warning light may indicate a malfunction in the ABS or traction control system.

If you notice any of these symptoms, it is critical to have your wheel bearings replaced by Orozco’s Auto Service in Bixby Knolls, Downtown. Generally, it is not feasible to replace a single bearing, and the entire wheel hub assembly must be replaced. Delaying the replacement of failing wheel bearings could cause additional damage to your vehicle, making timely replacement highly recommended.

If you noticed any of the above systems and would like to have your Wheel Bearings inspected, call Orozco’s Auto Service of Long Beach, Bixby Knolls today at 562-427-4256. Remember to always keep your vehicle in good condition and ensure the safety of yourself, your loved ones, and those around you!
