In the 30+ years I was in the auto repair business I witnessed one case of a failed bearing-because the mechanic adjusted the bearing too tight and the bearing failed while the customer was driving home.

My 300D had a bad wheel bearing when I bought it. It was 10 years old and had 43k miles on it. The life expectancy of the wheel bearing grease had clearly been exceeded.
