Hello, hoping you can help.A few months ago I slid into a curb on the front driver's side and broke a wheel, went to the insurance's recomended shop who messed up a lot. Long story short. Wheel bearing, steering rack, wheel, and control arm were all replaced. Alignment was done and a new set of tires was put on Thats all. I'm still hearing a vibration, kind of light rub/grind (whrr. Whrrr. Hrrr etc) noise when driving as wll as the virbration is noticble bcause things are now starting to rattle in the cabin. I notice more when going down hill, dealer says it's road noise (tech road with me and coudn't hear it) Doesn't feel like it did before hitting the curb. Also notced some excessive play, replacing shocks and struts soon(on order) should I be concerned about frame damage or something else fom hitting the curb? I'm not convinced that everything was repaired correctly. Your thoughts will be greatley appreciated. Thanks, Rick

Sounds to me like they re-packed the bearings instead of replacing them. An improperly greased bearing would definitely give you those conditions.

I forgot to mention perhaps a loose caliper?
