My Yamaha dealer replaced my rear tire, and when re-installing the wheel they did not install it properly. The mistake they made was they did not align the tabs on the speed sensor housing.
The bike was fine for 1500 miles, but the first time I activated ABS, the wheel made a grinding noise. When I looked closely at the hub there is metal shavings.
I brought it back to the dealer, and they admitted to installing it incorrectly, but they are saying the damage was caused by a blown wheel bearing.
The dealership is saying that the repair ($1200) is my responsibility.
48,000 miles on the bike.
I am wondering if the speed sensor housing being installed incorrectly could have caused the wheel bearing to come apart and cause the damage.
For those of you familiar with this, can you please share your opinion? I am meeting with the service manager soon to discuss it.
