Consumer Description

NOTICED DURING MY FIRST OIL CHANGE AT APPROX 1580MILES THAT BOTH FRONT WHEEL HUB BEARINGS WERE LEAKING GREASE. I DID NOT THINK MUCH OF IT AT THE TIME, CLEANING IT. AFTER APPROX 6000 MILES OR SO, I CHECKED THE FRONT TWO HUB WHEEL BEARINGS AND AGAIN THERE WAS SEEPAGE OF BEARING GREASE COMING OUT OF THE WHEEL HUB SEAL. CLEANED IT AGAIN. I LAST CHECKED AT APPROX 12000 MILES AND THERE WAS LITTLE RESIDUE STILL EMITTING FROM BOTH FRONT WHEEL HUB BEARINGS. I CHECKED FOR WHEEL PLAY BY RAISING FRONT OFF THE GROUND AND HOLD 9.15 AND 12.30 POSTITIONS BUT NO PLAY WAS NOTED. CONCERNED THAT BOTH WHEEL HUB BEARINGS WERE DEFECTIVE FROM NEW SINCE THEY LEAKED FROM NEW. I AM ASSUMING THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE PLAY AND WOBBLE ONCE THE FRONT HUBS FAIL, THEN EVENTUALLY FRONT WHEELS FALLING OFF.
