No, my truck 201K. A joke for the OP having it go out in 21K.

Gotcha. I never have my vehicles that long, only 3-4 years, so hopefully don't have to worry.

I've never had a car with wheel bearing problems ever, all new. I even had a 89 Mustang GT stick, for sixteen years with 267,000 kms when I finally sold it to a young guy. Car still ran strong, motor never apart except for a head gasket, and no wheel bearing problems.
BTW: still had the ORIGINAL clutch!

It was covered under warranty. But I am curious how much it would have been without warranty.
The advisor said they used a stethoscope to isolate the noise.

I think I'm going to take my car in next week, and find out. I want to get it resolved before I install my summer wheels/tires.
I have 106,000 kms on my 2012 Limited.

My 2016 Sport has 36,000 (aprox) miles on it, and it is out of the 3 year warranty. Are rear axle bearings covered under the power train warranty? The reason for my asking, is I know that I have a bad rear axle bearing, and the noise is getting louder. I asked the Service Manager at the dealership, and she wouldn't give me a definitive answer. Said that it would have to come into the shop for a diagnosis, and then be submitted to Ford for warranty approval. If Ford denies the repair, I have to pay for the diagnosis, unless I have the work done there and pay for it.

Check that brochure that most owners likely never take out of the glove box that is called a Warranty Guide.
