Is anyone else as upset as I am with the 2011 SRX? Drive shaft at 24,00 miles, Air dam for the roof, seat.... I have had 3 other Cad's and never had a wheel bearing problem. My wife's Escalade has 214,300 miles without a problem. SRX left front bearing at 101,110 and right rear wheel bearing at 113,200. $600 a pop for each repair. 2 down 2 to go for another $1200.0. May just take the trade in loss and get another car. (Not a Cad)

The drive shaft was way too early but bearings after 100K plus miles really ain't bad.

Yeah for the next two get Timken bearings from autozone and have an independent shop install them. I'd say you'd be at $600 tops for both.

Same problem for 2010 srx. Replaced i think 3 hubs out of 4.

I think the problem isn't because GM put in a POS bearing from the factory but i think maybe the spindle nut is overtorqued, which results in premature bearing failure. Its a PITA to take the hub off too. I wish GM would put grease on mating surfaces, so you can take the hub off like a normal human being.

Fwd bearings don't seem to last. 2001 impala went out at 50 k miles. Ask all the police departments in America who are running impala front wheel bearings over and over again.
