Default Bad Wheel Bearing

I bought a 2006 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE 5 months ago. There are no warranties left on the vehicle.

I've noticed a noise coming from the left front tire, but only when I reach a speed of around 100km/h. I took it to my mechanic who said it sounds like a wheel bearing. The ABS sensor is also kicking in a very low speeds causing the truck to lurch forward a little just prior to stopping. There was a code generated about ABS relay circuit??

I placed the truck in 4WD (first time) and when I slowed to turn, the truck would basically stop.

Does this sound like a wheel bearing or something far more serious? I getting a little worried that this is going to be in the thousands to fix!

Any ideas?

Thanks a million!

i have a 99 gmc sierra and my abs light was flashing on and i jacked the truck up and you could move the drivers side tire in and out. replaced the wheel bearing or hub assembly and abs light went off and tire tightened back up. probably the same problem your having
