bearing failure when?

I have read about front wheel bearing failure but at what mileage
should I expect to see this problem? I'm the original owner with a 2003 gls with 30,000 and have not had any problems with his car. My daughter use this car for college and I need a heads up about this
apparent problem.

Yeah GM covered it, but if its not broke they won't fix it. The other side is fine. So I guess they don't replace these in pairs.

Just had both the left and right front bearings replaced today (2000 with ~55k).
