Over the last year I've had the same problem and the same place has replaced the same wheel bearing about 6 times now under warranty. I just got my car back a week ago after they put in a different brand "higher quality" bearing, and just started to have the traction problems again yesterday.
The guy said he can't think of anything to cause the bearing to keep going bad in the same place. They have been good to me as far as replacing it 6 times over the last year at no cost, but it is annoying having to take it in every couple months. Is there anything else that can be replaced to stop the bearing from going bad?

It must be from improper install....you say the bearings each time where bad ,,,describe how bad....did they all fail the same way...
if the bearings are overheating this is usually improper install..
