Q: Severe grinding noise when accelerating on right side of front of vehicle. Video of wheel: https://youtu.be/nEgo_9Brw0c
Severe grinding noise when accelerating on right side of front of vehicle. I think it is a wheel bearing. I hope it is not because they are expensive to get changed. Video of wheel: https://youtu.be/nEgo_9Brw0c

My car has an automatic transmission.
