NHTSA complaint #10496956, filed 2013-02, 17 miles“I have noticed for some time that the front driver side seems to shake a little when driving. It appears that there is a leak in the wheel bearing. However, this is not the first time I've had an issue with the wheel bearing in the vehicle. A year ago, when I drove on the highway, I could not turn the wheel. I had to pull over, re-start the car to take it to the dealer. The wheel bearings were worn down at that time. It was replaced then and now, about a year later, I have a leak.”
