Hello,

There are several symptoms due to a bad wheel bearing.
One of the most common one is humming noise as you drive.
It can also make the wheel wobble, which will lead to steering wheel vibration.
Bad bearing can also cause uneven tire wear. The vehicle can pull to one side.

Take a look at this helpful guide:

I have attached diagram for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
