What is the Wheel Hub Assembly all about?
\n\n
The wheel hub holds a vehicle\u2019s wheels in place. When properly functioning, the front hub ensures that a vehicle\u2019s tires turn freely, that the ABS system works properly, and that fuel efficiency is normal. A rear wheel hub provides a solid mounting point for the rear wheel to bolt onto and ensures smooth rotation at all speeds.

Keep in mind:
\n\n
A worn out or loose wheel hub assembly can lead to a catastrophic wheel failure. Because the wheel hub holds the vehicle\u2019s wheels in place, it is a critical component and should be fixed as soon as possible. Wheel hub replacements should be done in pairs, because when one is worn to the point of needing replacement, the other will generally have the same amount of wear.
\n\n
How it's done:
\n\n
\n- The vehicle is supported on jack stands and wheel is removed
\n- The old wheel hub assembly is removed
\n- The new wheel hub assembly is installed
\n- The wheel is reinstalled and vehicle is removed from the jack stands
\n- The vehicle is road tested and checked for proper operation of front hubs and brakes
\n
\n\n
Our recommendation:
\n\n
If you suspect that your wheel hub assembly needs to be replaced, you should schedule service from one of our expert mechanics immediately. Replacement of a wheel hub assembly may require specialized tools that are best left operated by professional mechanics.
\n\n
What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Wheel Hub Assembly?
\n\n
\n- Whirring or grinding noise from the area of the front hub, located near the center of the vehicle\u2019s wheels, underneath the hubcap
\n- \u201cLoose\u201d steering, or steering that responds slowly
\n- Uneven brake application or excessive brake pedal travel before brakes apply
\n
\n\n
How important is this service?
\n\n
The wheel hub assembly is an essential component of any vehicle. If the wheel hub assembly is not in good operational condition, the wheel can separate from the axle. This is an extreme safety hazard, and repair should never be delayed.

I was unable to make my appointment so I arranged with Robert to get the parts and keys from my brother. He was obviously very knowledgeable in what he was doing as the work completed was done in about half the time that was estimated. By far the best mechanic experience I have ever had. Robert kept me up to date along the way and and was more than willing to work with my brother since I could not be there. I also requested that Robert didn't fill the transmission since my car has a silicone gasket. Robert was understanding of this and went as far as to let me know how much fluid he recovered so I could fill it myself once the silicone was cured. Most shops will suck out the ATF Fluid and replace what they pulled out. Robert did the full service on the transmission including dropping the pan and replacing the filter. I verified all the work once I got home and everything looked great. I am truly impressed with the service received from Robert and Your Mechanic. I will be having more work done through them in the near future.
