The front wheel bearings are squealing and need replaced. The dealer said that it was normal. . . They expect to replace them all at about 50,000 miles. They quoted $550 per axle, the bearings are $60 if not from the dealer!!! should be no reason for wheel bearings to be "typical replacement" items! 2001 Chrysler Pt Cruiser, 55,000 miles, garage stored.
