Somebody helped me change the left rear wheel bearing. I have not had a problem with this car in a year and a half. There was no noise before the wheel bearing was changed but now that it's changed, I hear allowed noise, but I can't tell where it's coming from. do, I got to worry about a tire falling off while I'm driving?

Hi,

Was it a front or rear wheel bearing? Also, does the sound change with vehicle speed? Is there any change in the pitch when making turns? Is the sound loud enough to record and upload for me to hear?

Take a look through this link and let me know if anything mirrors what you are experiencing:

Let me know.
