Bearings can go bad due to several factors, including inadequate lubrication, which leads to increased friction and wear. Contamination from dirt, dust, or moisture can also damage the bearing surfaces. Additionally, excessive loads or misalignment can cause stress and fatigue, leading to premature failure. Regular maintenance and monitoring can help prevent these issues and extend bearing life.
