Car Forum / Hyundai Cars / July 2005front wheel bearing warranty
I have a 1999 Elantra with 57000 miles. It recently started to make a noise from the front driver's side. It gets louder when turning right and softer when turning left. I put new tires, checked brakes without any improvement. It looks like I have a wheel bearing problem. Are front wheel bearings covered by original owner 100,000miles/10years warranty? If not, how much dealers charge for this job? Thank you, Lenja What country are you in? You need to call a dealer, they can tell you. > I have a 1999 Elantra with 57000 miles.

Wheel bearings are part of the drivetrain and are covered under the 5/60 part of the warranty. That means they're probably not covered on your car. You can figure ~$250 per corner for wheel bearing replacement. The bearings are cheap, but it's labor intensive to replace them. In the U.S., the front bearings are covered by the 10/100 powertrain warranty. > In the U.S., the front bearings are covered by the 10/100 powertrain > warranty. OOPS! I got the powertrain and bumper-to-bumper warrantys confused. Thanks for correcting me. I went to a Hyundai dealer and the bearing was replaced. It was $178 in total and covered by warranty. I paid nothing. Thanks to everyone who answered my question and especially Hyundaitech. Lenja |
