Transmission services in Kenmore, offered by Jamie's Transmission Service
Kenmore wraps the top of Lake Washington where the Sammamish River flows in, its older lakeside streets and hillside neighborhoods strung along the Bothell Way corridor. Wheel bearings carry the entire weight of the vehicle on a few square inches of hardened steel, and Jamie's Transmission Service has replaced them alongside transmission and differential work for Kenmore drivers since 1988, on manual and automatic vehicles alike.
Bothell Way's stoplight-to-stoplight rhythm and the climbs up to Moorlands and Inglewood are a wear pattern we recognize the moment a Kenmore vehicle comes in for a road test. A failing bearing left too long overheats, loosens and in the worst case lets the wheel run untrue, taking the hub with it and turning a moderate job into an expensive one. For Kenmore drivers the fix costs the same today as next month; the damage does not.
Kenmore's seaplane-and-boat waterfront culture means more towing than its size suggests, and its 1960s housing stock pairs with plenty of proudly high-mileage vehicles worth a second transmission. We press bearings and replace hub assemblies with quality parts across essentially every make and model Kenmore drivers own, and torque them to spec, because bearing preload is not a guess, it is a number.
Oversized tires and wheels load bearings harder than stock, and lifted Kenmore trucks eat front bearings accordingly. If you run big rubber, add bearings to the list of things checked at service time.
Wherever you are in Kenmore, whether Inglewood, Moorlands, Arrowhead, Uplake or elsewhere in the north end of Lake Washington, we can help with wheel bearing & hub. Kenmore is about half an hour from the shop via SR-522, and we route Kenmore road tests over the same hills their owners climb daily.
