son,s 2011 70,000 mile C200 CDI front wheel bearing failed on his way to work this morning, no rumble prior or anything untoward just a loud crack and pulled to the left,trailered home and had to gas axe the outer cone off the stub ,wouldnt shift and the wheel flange isnt strong enough to withstand much pulling either!

just been out to my daughters 2013 E Class 70,000 miles, nearly identical situation to above except she was doing 70 on a dual carriageway at the time ,another one to recover just hope its not seized on like the last,also checked my sons other side bearing which had already been replaced!! what kind of crap are they using nowadays... so much for using "quality parts" certainly not worthy of the star nowadays
