“I have had three separate mechanics diagnose my 2009 Dodge Pickup truck after reporting hearing a loud hum. All three mechanics diagnosed rear-wheel bearings failure. Also, the wheel bearing failure may have caused the rear differential to fail as well. To repair my vehicle will cost between $1500 and $4000. I have seen several reports online that this is a common problem and I would like to file a complaint the Dodge did not properly design the vehicle.”
