Impact Damage On Wheel Hubs
When a driver hits a pothole or curb hard enough, extreme forces are put onto the balls or rollers and races of the bearing. This can result in the formation of a very small mark on the surfaces. The driver might go 1,000 miles or more before these components start making noise.
Periodic Undercar Inspections Are A Valuable Service For Your Mazda Customers
Brake and suspension problems will surface in a couple of ways, the most common of which are noise-related.
Inspecting And Servicing Worn Driveshafts

Spring Is Pothole And Bearing Season
The classic symptom of a bad wheel bearing is typically a cyclic chirping, squealing or growling noise that changes in proportion to vehicle speed. The sound may only appear or disappear at certain speeds. The noise may get worse when turning, or it may disappear momentarily. So, it’s difficult to make a diagnosis based on noise alone.
