What did you feel was wrong with the hoses?

They are right about the wheel bearings, they are a sealed unit that makes a noise when they start to fail. They aren't like older separate cone type wheel bearings that get loose.

I have been happy with my service advisor. When I had a front wheel bearing go (I diagnosed it, and identified it as LF, by the sound) my SA had a tech come out of the shop to go for a drive around the block with me. Tech took one block to confirm my diagnosis, and we went from there.
