How much is the typical cost for replacing both front wheel bearings for a Hyundai Accent 95?

I was just given an estimate of $320 to change both of my front wheel bearings. This includes parts and labor. Is that a fair price? Also, the mechanic said that I should change both of them although only the driver's side is the problem. Is that normal, as in as a preventative measure or is he being a dishonest mechanic? I would really appreciate anwers from actual mechanics. ThanksHow much is the typical cost for replacing both front wheel bearings for a Hyundai Accent 95?
Possibly a little bit high, but it's in the ballpark. Find out if the bearings need to be preloaded before you get it done. If they do, make sure the mechanic does that or you will be replacing the wheel bearings again in about a year.How much is the typical cost for replacing both front wheel bearings for a Hyundai Accent 95?

no i don't think that's dishonest, i would give the customer that option as well because labor is slightly less to do both at once rather than do the other side in the future. and i do think that's a good price for parts and labor for both sides because it takes a fair amount of time to press out and press in new bearings.
$320 dollars is more than fair for replacing both front wheel bearings it is normal to replace both he is not trying to rip you off
