Default Another Wheel Hub

Just found out that I have to replace my third front wheel hub in 45K miles. It seems the integrated wheel sensor failed, which triggered a "Service Stability System" message and a shutdown of ABS and Traction Control. Another $500 bucks down the tubes.

I replaced 2 on warenty and 1 on my own but that was over 100k not 45k like yours?

What kind of roads do you drive on? are they bumpy?

I just had my right front replaced last week at 46k. Started making a grinding sound. Glad I have GMPP. Didn't cost me a dime.....

Just normal city/ highway driving. I think my car is just cursed!

My first one on the right went out at 30K under warranty. That'* the one that went bad and was replaced today with 75K on the car.

I also had to pay to replace the left side at 39K. I guess I can expect that one to crap out before much longer.

BTW...no pics of my SSEI. Looks 100% stock.

Mine has started making a growling sound the today as I was driving. Didn't notice it getting any louder or any driveability issues (vibrations, etc..). Were there any other symptoms when these go out, or is it all audible? I figure I might as well replace both while I am in there. No need to do just one, seeing as they both have the same amount of miles on them. Cheapest I have found them is $130 each. Is this about right??

This time, I had no grinding noises. A wheel sensor (which is apparently integrated into the hub) failed that led to a shutdown of ABS and Traction Control. The dealer told me I had to have a new hub.
