Default Re: Loud Buzzing Noise in the Front? Defective wheel bearing!

Well, I have gone over a couple of major pot-holes, but the buzzing happened quite a bit afterwards, but of course the problem wouldn't have have shown up immediately.

I'm just hoping I didn't get a "lemon" version of the HCHII: first the side window problem, now this buzzing, and then the brake "farting" noise which several others have noted.

I want to be a devoted Honda owner (as I have been in the past), so I hope I'm not disappointed.

As some technicians will say, accellerated wear on the bearings can occur if the conditions favor it - The above are just some of the most common.

Then it can also be a manufacturing, assembly or design defect - at which point it becomes a general concern worth looking into. So far (as of today), no services bulletins appear to have been issued on this problem.
