Time and mileage, abuse (not greasing it when you should). Also if you live in the northern states where it sees a lot of salt and snow will make it wear out faster. Mostly thought its just mileage that makes them die. Anything over about 100k miles don't be surprised, but if you're lucky and take good care of your car like i do I've got 180k miles and they're still fine.
Remove the tire and wheel. Remove the brake assembly and rotor. Remove the axle end cap. The rear hub assembly will come off.
The rear wheel bearings in a 2003 Buick Rendezvous are integrated with the hub, therefore they are only available/replaceable as an entire hub assembly. The rear hub assembly costs around $200/each, depending on the specifics of the vehicle (2WD or 4WD).
To replace the rear hub assembly on your vehicle, you will need to first lift the car and remove the wheel. Next, disconnect the brake caliper and rotor. Then, unbolt the hub assembly and remove it. Install the new hub assembly by reversing these steps. Be sure to torque the bolts to the manufacturer's specifications and test the brakes before driving.
To properly assemble the rear bike hub assembly, first insert the axle through the hub and then attach the cone and locknut on each side. Adjust the bearings and tighten the locknuts to secure the assembly. Finally, install the cassette or freewheel onto the hub and secure it in place.

With a Wheel Bearing Hub Assembly, you might get both the wheel bearing and the hub assembly. Sometimes, especially with FWD vehicles, the front hubs will not have the bearing with them but the rear hub assembly will. Most part manufacturers will follow what ever the auto company recommends.
A front or rear hub bearing assembly going bad could sound like that.
If you're trying to replace the rear wheel bearing and all you can find is the rear hub assembly, it probably means that you can't get just the bearing. Many vehicle manufacturers press the bearing into the assembly at the factory and there is no way to replace just the bearing. If they're offering the assembly, that's probably what you'll need to buy.
I assume that it will be like a 1998 Sienna van. There is a sealed bearing in the hub assembly and you change the whole assembly. There are four bolts that hold the hub assembly to the suspension.
