Hi:
Recently, I've been hearing a strange noise at the front part of my Nitro. When I turn the wheel to the right it stops the noise. But when I turn it to the left the noise comes back and vibrates. A mechanic told me that it was the right-front Wheel bearing that needed to be replace. I ask a local dealer for the price, and they want to sell a complete wheel hub part and is very expensive.. I was wondering if there is a small part that can be replace or if the whole part need to come out.

Thanks,
Bethzaida Rivera

Yes the mechanic is correct and no hub assembly must be replaced. Check with Auto parts store will be less than dealer

That was a quick answer! Thanks. By the way what's the name of the part so that I can look up at the auto part. You are talking with a woman that doesn't know a bit of cars, and sometimes when a person doesn't know people like to take advantage, specially dealers!
