Why does my car make a loud rumble when driving straight?

Sent to Car Experts June 05 11:36 PM

I originally thought my brake pads were going, which there was a loud chirping sound..now, theres a loud rumble (sounds like from my front 2 tires) when I am driving straight..especially when i just started driving, or come to a stop and start going again. Its so loud sometimes, it sounds like the front end will fall out the bottom.

You may have a bad hub bearing in the front. I suggest you left the car and run the engine in gear to listen for the noise to pinpoint the location.
