What owners wrote
From 14,000 miles to present 34,000 miles front wheel bearing is being replaced for fourth time by dealer. Feel free to provide any further information.
Had to have wheel bearings on both sides of the rear replaced at only 44,000 miles on my 2000 subaru forester. Upon research have found wheel bearings to be a defective complaint among subaru forester and impreza owners. Some owners claiming that wheel bearings must be replaced every 30,000 miles.
