WHEEL BEARING COLLISION DAMAGE
APPLIED VEHICLES: All Infiniti
SERVICE INFORMATION
Impacts to wheel bearings (such as a collision or other suspension damage) may create slight indents in the bearing surfaces. These indents may not
be visible but can cause bearing noise.
NOTE:
Hub/bearing replacement due to impact (collision or other suspension damage) is not a warrantable repair.
If a vehicle has visible wheel or suspension damage due to impact (collision or other suspension damage) it is recommended that the wheel bearing
assembly be inspected as follows:
- Remove the hub/bearing assembly from the vehicle.
- Hold the hub/bearing assembly with both hands.
- Rotate the hub/bearing assembly in both directions (clockwise and counterclockwise).
- If any gritty or rough feeling is detected in the bearing replace it with a new one.
