Hi all,
A 92 year old man with suspended license since the year 1971 ran into me on the driver side rear quarter panel. To make a long story short, I picked up my car from the dealer all repaired from the accident but I started noticing a humming from the left (accident side) rear wheel when the car reaches 50 MPH. The car is now back to the dealer but I am fighting them because they are saying and I quote "this humming noise is coming from your tire being abused by burning out and racing the car" yeah I don't believe them, I haven't abused the car and my car only has 4000 miles on it, in addition the noise was not there before the accident (unless I never noticed it until I was paranoid after the accident, which I highly doubt) ... so my questions to you guys... most likely the wheel bearing went bad because of the impact to the wheel/rim correct? The wheel was sent out to a professional for "repairs" that is what the dear is saying. I know it is hard to bent the pp1 wheels and the car runs smooth, no vibration, however the humming is there. I am thinking it has to be a wheel bearing but wanted to ask you guys. I read that the wheel bearings on the mustangs are weak. What do you guys think?
Thank you.
