I took 2005 4 horse w/living quarters in for check up and wheel bearings were repacked (rims on left side seems to be to hot)now all 4 wheels are screeching while driving, without the brake being touched. Took back in to fix and they replaced the braker in the truck still no change. They checked all voltage says all is correct. For 7 years this wasn't an issue. What do you think? This shop does horse trailer and all the city buses.

The squeal is probably the bearings...when they repacked them did they drive the seals down too tight...or did they overtighten the axle nut on all for wheels.Put your trailer tire on your trailer jack and hand spin them one at a time
