Wj Again With the Wheel Bearing?

This will be the third time with the same rear wheel bearing! Why? I am sick of paying the same mechanic for labor on the same issue over and over again! Why is this happening? I really do not think there is a bent axle tube, it makes no sense.

when did he put the last one in? i wonder if he is greasing the things before installing them? i'd take it back if it was recent and tell him to fix it for free.... if there was another issue it should have got caught, and therefore its his mistake as well

The axle is your issue,to much clearance between it and the bearing and it chews the bearing up.Get a new axle and bearing installed,seen it a few times.
