Consumer Description

NOTICED VEHICLE VIBRATION AT SLOW SPEED AND PERSISTENT BUT NOT AS SEVERE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NOT BEING A MECHANIC I THOUGHT IT FELT LIKE A TIRE OUT OF ROUND OR TIRE OUT OF BALANCE. TOOK IT TO A FIRESTONE SHOP TO INSPECT AND CORRECT PROBLEM. MECHANIC FOUND THAT THE RIGHT FRONT BEARING WAS FALLING APART AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE TIRES WERE READY TO BE REPLACED THEY HAD 60,000 MILES ON THEM WITH A LITTLE CUPPING BUT FAIRLY EVEN WEAR. WITHOUT STOPPING TO CHECK THE TIRES THE BEARING MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE FAILED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, WHICH PROBABLY WOULD HAVE PREVENTED ME FROM FILING THIS REPORT. *TR
