Is the front wheel bearing of a Chvey Aveo 07 hatchback hard to repair and replace. Without going to a mechanic.

Yup. GM bearings used to be real easy to replace. They were bolt-on assemblies similar to what Chrysler is using. Your car uses a pressed-in bearing like Fords and older Chryslers use. That style requires a special tool for removal and installation.
