wheel bearings a warranty issue?
Had MOT and passed
Being given advisory...wheel bearing starting to become noisy... whatever that means... The car is still under manufacturers warranty so should they fix this for free? or is this wear and tear? |

Re: wheel bearings a warranty issue?
I once got front bearings done under warranty on a Kwak ZX6R,but I bet they try and wriggle out of it.How old is it and what mileage might be important.

Re: wheel bearings a warranty issue?
I take it you had the mot done early as it is not due its first one until its three years old ?
I think it should be covered if the car is within the age / mileage limits of the waranty ... mind you some of the non manufacturers warranties you can buy would more than likely class it as wear & tear ! |

Re: wheel bearings a warranty issue?
I would say not, more likely a wear and tear item, if they had gone within say 6 months and 3000 miles for example then i would imagine that warranty would cover them

I work for a Subaru main dealers & wheel bearings are covered for three years or 60,000 miles whichever comes first ...
