Two other people have told me their wheel bearings have failed. also with low mileage. these are shielded bearings that do not require lubrication. bearing on my truck was half gone when they replaced it. it was mis diagnosed by j.p. thibodeaux gmc in new iberia, la. and correctly diagnosed by courtesy gmc of lafayette, la. i had made two trips to j.p. thibodeaux complaining about the noise and wheel locking up. i was told it was a wheel sensor, causing the problem. told to drive truck home which was approximately 20 miles each way at 70 mph. this was very unsafe and dangerous knowing what i know now. these bearings are defective and need to be replaced by a quality bearing.*ak
