NHTSA Complaint #11673983 — 2017 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SPORT

There was a loud sound coming from the driver’s side. I was told it was the wheel bearing & it sized to the axle & the entire hub/wheel bearing knuckle needed to be changed as well as the axle on the driver’s side. I was told it was dangerous to drive. Upon further inspection the mechanic told me the passenger side was seized to axle too so the same job will need to be done to the passenger side. Now they say I can drive the car but I’m worried about my safety & wonder why the wheel bearings are seizing the axles. This is a costly job. I’d prefer not to have to change the axle each time I need a new wheel bearing. I’m afraid to drive this car more than an hour from home or long distances.
