Couple of things could cause the problem
1. Inner & outer bearings were not properly packed. This alone can cause premature failure fairly quickly.
2. Old bearing races were used causing the new bearings not to seat properly.
3. The old spacers were used and the installer did not measure to see if a thinner outer bearing retainer washer was needed.
