The wheel was wobbling as it spun!!!  He took
the hub off and the right rear outer wheel bearing had
DISINTEGRATED!!!!  In pieces!!  Outer rim was cracked
and the inner lattice holding the bearings was in
pieces.

Hi there,

I'm wondering why they don't catch the bearing problem as they worked at
your brakes. I think a good mechanic would figure this. But Midas is a
muffler shop and wheel bearings are too far away from the muffler. Good that
Frank could help you. Nice guy in MHOP.
