It has 1 big hub bearing per side and you can not service them. It has factory sealed bearings. If there bad then you must replace the bearing.
To replace the rear wheel bearing on a 2000 Chevy Metro, begin by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the rear wheel. Next, detach the brake assembly and the hub assembly from the axle, which may require removing the axle nut and any bolts securing the hub. Once the hub is removed, you can access the bearing; use a bearing puller to remove it and install the new bearing. Finally, reassemble the hub, brake components, and wheel, ensuring everything is securely fastened before lowering the vehicle.

Could be the brakes are gone or it could be a hub and bearing assembly about to fall off the front of your car.
Yes it can be. I think you need to replace the whole hub assembly
You can replace both... Bearing or Hub... Bearings are cheaper, but harder to find and replace. Hub assemblies are easier to replace, but slightly more expensive.
