Still, one would think the dates for change and even background would slip out at some point... that day I'll be around with ears wide open...
Another thing tha makes me wonder is that most bearing failures seem to be reported in N.A. Believe "only" around 50% of the cars went that way so still curious why we for instance don't get many (any?) reports in EU..? Maybe we're simply less active on the forums over here, but still strange.

It could be that USA-assembled cars had some sort of tolerance issues. No clue really. I wonder if anyone tracked the manufacturing origin of each failed vehicle.
