Have had to replace rear wheel bearing assemblies multiples times on 2007 Ford Edge. Big safety issue.

Both my wife and I noticed that there were loud noises coming from the rear end of the vehicle. . . Growling noises which became noticeable around 30 mph. As the speed increased, the noise level did as well. I was told by a Ford mechanic that the rear wheel bearings needed to be replaced (after only approx. 32k miles!). I replaced both rear wheel bearings and the noise diminished but did not totally go away. It still varies with speed. When it's raining, the noise diminishes. When it's cold ( freezing or lower) the noise diminishes. In neither case, after the bearings were replaced, did the noise go away completely. We bought the car brand new and had none of these problems. Different Ford forums state that there is a defect in the arms that support the rear wheels that causes the bearings to be rotated in a position that causes them to fail quickly. To date I have not found any literature from Ford verifying this, yet the problem persists.

2008 Ford Edge, right rear suspension system, needs rear controlling arm and wheel bearing replaced. Noise from rear right of vehicle noted. Had tires checked (referencing tread), rotated, and balanced. The business noted the wheel bearing malfunction/issue and advise to take to Ford. Contacted local Ford dealership. Per phone call, was advised this had been occurring on several Edge vehicles. Once taken to shop, confirmed and advised both the wheel bearing and the controlling arm must be replaced as one. Advised back order for controlling arm, but not information available on how long it would take to receive. Asked Ford if safe to drive and was advise "yes, it is safe to drive; it just may be more noticeable/make more noise". Incident date is listed as the date taken to tire shop. Noise seem to appear approximately 1 to 1/2 months ago.
