Default Rear wheel bearing

Hi there,

Is there a know issue with the rear bearings? I had the rear right gone bad the other day.
The car is only 53K miles.

Does anyone knows how to replace them?

Best Regards.

Before I bought my car with 28K miles, the dealer replaced both front wheel after I noted a moaning noise during the test drive. The car still had a moaning noise witch turned out to be the left rear bearing. Now the noise if back and I am betting it is the right rear.

There does seem to be an issue with the bearings, especially the rears. It may be due to the amount of negative camber that they use on these cars.

I believe that the bearings are a bolt on replacement and fairly easy to replace.
