Why Your Tesla Wheel Bearing is Making Noise

We are located in Toronto, and we understand your Tesla wheel bearing. We’ll inspect, diagnose, and repair it if necessary.

A Tesla wheel bearing connects the wheel and the axle. It is a set of steel balls or rollers housed within a metal ring. The primary function of a wheel bearing is to enable the wheel to rotate smoothly with minimal friction while supporting the weight of the vehicle.

Smooth Wheel Rotation: By reducing friction, wheel bearings allow the wheels to spin freely and efficiently.

Load Bearing: Wheel bearings support the vehicle’s weight and the forces exerted during various driving conditions such as acceleration, braking, and cornering.

Stability and Safety: Properly functioning wheel bearings contribute to the stability of the vehicle.

Sounds of a Failing Tesla Wheel Bearing

Grinding or Grating Noise: One of the most common signs of a failing Tesla wheel bearing is a grinding or grating noise coming from the wheel area. This noise usually gets louder as the vehicle accelerates.

Humming or Growling: A humming, growling, or rumbling sound can indicate that the Tesla wheel bearing is worn out. This sound may change with the vehicle’s speed or when turning.

Clunking Noise: If the wheel bearing has significant play or is severely damaged, you might hear a clunking noise, especially when driving over uneven surfaces.

How a Failing Tesla Wheel Bearing Feels

Vibrations: A bad wheel bearing can cause vibrations that can be felt in the steering wheel or through the entire vehicle. These vibrations often worsen as speed increases.

Uneven Tire Wear: If a wheel bearing is failing, it can cause uneven tire wear.

Steering Issues: You may notice that your vehicle feels less responsive or drifts to one side.

Why Tesla Wheel Bearings Fail

Wear and Tear: Over time, wheel bearings naturally wear out due to constant use and the stresses of driving conditions. This is the most common cause of bearing failure.

Poor Installation: Incorrect installation of wheel bearings can lead to premature failure. Over-tightening or under-tightening the bearings can cause damage and reduce their lifespan.

Contamination: Dirt, debris, and moisture can enter the wheel bearing assembly, leading to corrosion and increased friction. This contamination can significantly shorten the life of the bearing.

Impact Damage: Hitting potholes, curbs, or other obstacles can cause damage to the wheel bearings, leading to their failure.

I was told a heater core flush was my last resort before getting the heater core replacement. The drive from Mississauga was well worth it, these guys are specialized and know their stuff.

It was odd that the dealership referred me to an independent mechanic for no heat. I’m sold now, these guys are not only helpful and friendly, but they saved me A LOT of money. Highly recommended.

I cannot say enough good things about this shop. They go out of their way to make sure you are well informed and are very honest. I recently had an issue with brakes which could have cost several hundreds of dollars. They troubleshot and found that it only was a small problem. They even charged me only for the parts and brake fluid actually used, other shops always charge full bottle and would have suggested unneeded additional parts/services.When I picked up the vehicle, they gave me a complete run down of what happened and why and then identified potential future issues and recommendations for the vehicle.The most professional repair shop I have ever been to. Would not hesitate to recommend this shop to family and friends!

After owning numerous vehicles in over 30 years and taking those vehicles to a lot of different repair shops including the dealer, I finally was fortunate to get referred by a friend to these guys. WOW, they are amazing! First of all, they are by far the most honest shop I have ever taken my vehicle to in my entire life. The work was spot on and the price was fair. I had some other things I needed to do the car that were not urgent and they were kind enough to recommend waiting until spring time to do it (which would save me money), Wow, most shops try to milk every penny out of you any time they see you, not these guys. Honest and great work, Highly recommend.
