Has anyone had this problem before? I get a humming noise only when i turn right. It sounds like it is comming from the pass side front tire. Is this a bearing or something else. It does not seem like it is the tire rubbing. It looks like there is enough clearance for the tire. They are ther stock tires. Just want to know if my tire is going to fall off or if this is an easy fix. Thanks for looking at this question. Jason

Jack that side up. Grab the tire top and bottom and see if there is any play. You should not get any play from the wheel this way. If there is play, that wheel bearing is bad. Normally it's not a big deal to repack them, but the modern MGM's have lifetime sealed wheel bearings, and I haven't tried to open them up to see if they can be repacked.
