Dear Sirs,
When my car reaches forty mph it begins to feel wobbly, and you can feel that this is coming from the right rear area. Passengers tell me that it is really loud back there too. A mechanic relative said that my bearing may be the problem. I'm sure the tires aren't the problem.
Thanks, David

Hi there,

I would tend to agree that your problem is a failed wheel bearing, get it looked at before it fails completely and strands you.
