2005 Ford Freestar Repair Question
Ford Freestar Noise Problem
Other info: bought the car used; all brakes and rotors are new.
Thanks!

Answer
Do you hear the noise when the vehicle is stopped? Does the noise get worse when you turn right? Has anyone checked to see if the brake sensors are bent and touching the rotors?
Thanks for your reply.
I don't hear it when the car is stopped. Bearing right doesn't have any effect. I have not had anyone check the brake sensors, but brakes are new on all four wheels.
Also, the duration of the noise has gotten longer over the past 1.5 years. Replacing the breaks had no effect.
If the brakes had no affect, then I feel you have a problem with a wheel bearing. Have you had them checked?
Have not checked the wheel bearing. Does it just need lubrication? Is this something that my husband and I can do, or do I need to take it to a shop?
They are sealed bearings. When they go bad, they get replaced.
