According to my research, the cost of wheel bearing depends on the brand and what kind of car you have, it might costs somewhere between $200 to $500 parts and labor. Mechanic charges are expensive, I would say $100 per hour.
The Lancer does have wheel bearings on the front. If you would like to find them yourself, go to www.mitsubishiparts.com. The Lancer does have wheel bearings on the front. If you would like to find them yourself, go to www.mitsubishiparts.com.

If you don't replace bad wheel bearings they will seize up and break your drive axle. It would be cheaper to replace them as soon as possible.See "Related Questions" below for detailed procedures for replacing Windstar wheel bearings - really not a terrible job to do.
It all depends on the bearings that you need to replace! Get some quotes! If it is bearings inside the engine, then the mechanic you go to is going to have pull the engine anyways, so if there are no other problem with your engine but some bearings then i would just have the bearing replaced, but if you have other problems due to the bearings going out, then i would replace the engine. Hope i helped
Need to replace Wheel Bearings
New front wheel bearings must be pressed onto hubs by mechanic with proper tools. Bearings are sealed units and cannot be repacked with grease. Replace worn bearings ASAP or they will damage hubs, you'll save bunches of money.ANS 2 -Most modern wheel bearings are fitted in a 'carrier' that bolts onto the knuckle. This avoids having you service the bearing, and in fact most garages use this system now. I haven't seen a mechanic press a bearing on in 10 years unless it was an old or unusual vehicle. In fact I seriously doubt that mechanics graduating now would know how to press a bearing on.
Did you replace the race? Did you fully pack the wheel bearings with the proper lube? Did you torque them correctly? I suspect you are not doing one of these things. You are doing something wrong or this would not be happening.Did you replace the race? Did you fully pack the wheel bearings with the proper lube? Did you torque them correctly?

No, bad front wheel bearings would not prevent a transmission from shifting. If your car has bad front wheel bearings you will notice wheel noise or wheel looseness.
Well, I would recommend replacing wheel bearings in cars around approximately two to five times a year because it ensures that the vehicles or automobiles work fine.
There are so many different bearings you would have to state year and name of vehicle to get a good answer.

Not knowing what vehicle you have I would suspect the replacement bearings are of poor quality or they are installed incorrectly.
