Who It's For

This wheel hub assembly is best for DIY mechanics and independent shops replacing worn or noisy hubs on compatible Buick Lacrosse (2010-2016), Regal (2011-2017), Cadillac XTS (2013-2017), Chevrolet Impala (2014-2017), Malibu (2013-2016, 2016 Malibu Limited) and Saab 9-5 (2010-2011). It is aimed at owners who need an OE-dimension, 5-lug hub that installs quickly and restores wheel stability.

Those needing hubs with integrated ABS sensors or model-specific electronic features should verify fitment carefully and look elsewhere if an ABS-equipped hub is required, since this listing notes ABS sensor included: No. Professional shops replacing hubs on newer vehicles with advanced sensor packages should confirm exact part cross-reference numbers.
