I have a 2007 FX35 and I recently took it to the Infiniti dealership for routine maintenance. They said my front wheel bearings were loose and needed replacing ASAP. I was told they wouldn't pass state inspection (Virginia-even though it wasn't due). I was a little sticker shocked by the price quoted, so I took the FX to another non Infiniti mechanic for a 2nd opinion. I have heard no noise, no steering wobble and there are only 61K miles on it. The 2nd mechanic said the wheel bearings were fine, not loose or even remotely bad.
The Infiniti technician still maintains they are bad but when I called them back, they 'reduced' the urgency a bit.
Has anyone had a wheel bearing go bad without 'symptoms' and at such relatively low mileage? Could the Infiniti certified mechanic really see something they ASE certified one didn't? Or am I getting taken for a ride????
Thank you!
