    Hello! I'm so sorry for that cliff hanger. I don't get notified if there's any activity on my posts/profile unless I login. I'll have to check my profile settings.

    To update you on the wheel bearing issue, after the 4th one being replaced I've had no issues since then. Thankfully everything seems to be stable and I don't hear or notice any weird noises/vibrations. My Mirage is now over the 100k mile mark and she's been chugging along with confidence and honestly I couldn't be happier.

    Thank you to everyone for your input and suggestions!

I have never had a vehicle need alignments so much. I paid like $150 one time at the dealer and the thing was out of alignment the next day. Now I just live with good enough lifetime alignments at pepboys when it needs it.
    My problem is my car is a rock magnet. It matters not where I travel on the hiway, fast lane, far right lane, nor does it matter how close or far back I follow the traffic. Always, ALWAYS when on the hiway more than 30 mins. I'll hear the telltale report of a rock slamming my window. It has cracks in it I've never seen the likes of, but I'm sure they are from rock strikes. /rant over
