Has anyone else ever had problems with their bearings going out a lot? My front passenger side ones have gone out 5 times in the 2 years I've owned the car. Is it a '94 thing? I really hate this because I spent so much on just the fckn bearings.

Are you doing the repair work yourself or taking it to the same shop each time?

IMO take it to a different shop, it sounds like whoever has done the repairs doesn't know what they're doing. Or you have a bent hub or something that is putting extra strain on the bearings.

*EDIT* Of the Celica's I've owned, my 94 and 95 both got front bearings on both sides replaced at around 130k miles. If you don't get the hub nut torqued correctly then you'll just eat the bearing up.
