As most of you know our Qubo went through 2 sets of bearing in 10k miles and was only 18 minths old, Now its fine whilst the car is still under warranty, but what happins once the vehicle is out of warranty.
I'm quite sure it wont be a cheap job at a dealer, and as Chimpy stated what other damage is being caused.
We bit the bullet and changed the car, not everyone can afford to do that. I require an economical and reliable car as my wife used it all the time, the Qubo although economical was now proving to be unreliable with regards to bearings and tyre wear.
I do hope Chimpy's cure works, as a lot of owners could face large bills to get these bearings replaced, and if Fiat are only putting a 2 year warranty on the parts, it seems they dont think the new one's will last much longer.
Cheers Ian
