I mentioned it needs to be torqued at 174 - 231 ft lbs. Pliers? Either I understand this system wrongly or you have the wrong guy doing the job. Improper torquing would result in damage to the bearings as the nut is not holding the bearing correctly.

To be sure I understand the problem correctly, send me a picture of the hub with the center nut.

Yes, the central nut has to be torqued correctly and i believe that is the cause of the problem, improper torquing.

For proper torquing, a torque wrench is required but most people would either use an air impact wrench or get someone to depress the brakes while you use a breaker bar to tighten the bolt.
