What are the effects of bad car bearings?
1 Answers
Effects of bad car bearings: 1. Abnormal friction between the brake drum and brake pads significantly increases driving resistance, reduces rolling smoothness, and leads to decreased power; 2. Affects comfort; 3. Causes the vehicle to pull to one side and increases tire noise; 4. Leads to suspension damage; 5. Damages the wheel mechanism, potentially causing the wheel hub to detach; 6. Results in steering system failure. The function of car bearings is to bear weight and provide precise guidance for the rotation of the wheel hub. Maintenance methods for car bearings: 1. Remove the wheel hub, scrape off the old grease from the bearings, axle neck, and wheel hub cavity, clean the wheel hub bearings and axle neck with a cleaning agent, wipe them dry with a cloth, and clean the inner cavity of the wheel hub; 2. Apply grease to the inner cavity of the bearings.
