WHEEL BEARING COLLISION DAMAGE

APPLIED VEHICLES: All Nissan

SERVICE INFORMATION

Impacts to wheel bearings (such as a collision or other suspension damage) may create slight indents in the bearing surfaces. These indents may not be visible but can cause bearing noise.

NOTE:
Hub/bearing replacement due to impact (collision or other suspension damage) is not a warrantable repair

If a vehicle has visible wheel or suspension damage due to impact (collision or other suspension damage), it is recommended that the wheel bearing assembly be inspected as follows:

  

1. Remove the hub/bearing assembly from the vehicle.

2. Hold the hub/bearing assembly with both hands.

3. Rotate the hub/bearing assembly in both directions (clockwise and counterclockwise).

4. If any gritty or rough feeling is detected in the bearing replace it with a new one.
