  • Moog fulfills their warranty through their individual dealers. That means that in order to receive warranty support, you will have to refer back to the original dealer you purchased the part from. Be sure to check the dealer's warranty support before you buy the part to make sure that they will properly support the warranty. If a dealer will only refer you back to the manufacturer in order to receive warranty support, then you may not actually have any warranty at all.

    Part of our warranty process includes reviewing evidence of the defect provided by the customer. This is easily accomplished by providing video or images of the defective part so our staff can verify the claim and move forward with the warranty process. This removes the necessity of shipping the part back to our facility at the customer's expense.

    WARRANTY:

    Moog Premium Steering Components carry a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Moog R-Series Control Arms, Hub Assemblies, and Knuckle Assemblies carry a 3 Year or 36,000 mile Warranty (whichever occurs first). And Moog CV Axles carry a 2 Year Warranty. Above warranties are based on customers who own a car, van, SUV or light truck (less than 8,000 lbs. or 3,625 kilograms).

    Moog warranties their parts to be free of defects in materials and/or workmanship during these timeframes as measured from the date of purchase.

    If a Moog part should fail due to materials or manufacturing defect while under warranty, we will provide a replacement of the part upon return of the defective part.

    Limited to ONE replacement during guarantee period

    Wearable RUBBER parts are not covered under warranty (Dust boots, bushings, bump stops, etc.)

Knuckle Assembly: Volkswagen, Various Models

With Pre-Installed Wheel Bearing

If your Volkswagen wheel bearings are emitting a growling, grinding noise or you are getting some vibration, especially while turning, you may need to get your bearings replaced. The press-in bearings on several year models of the Beetle, Golf, GTI, and Jetta are difficult to replace. The folks at Moog have heard these complaints and have created a solution: Get a high-quality Complete Knuckle Assembly, with a new pre-installed wheel bearing, and replace the entire knuckle assembly in about half the normal time. If you have crested the recommended 100K mile replacement mark or your bearing is rusted in the knuckle, the complete knuckle assembly is the fastest and easiest option for wheel bearing replacement on your Volkswagen.

This knuckle assembly is a bolt-on solution from Moog and comes pre-assembled which means that every part is not only compatible but designed to work together. We here at DST love the easy installation that enables you to save money on labor because the need for a hub puller or a press is eliminated. If you love doing your own repair work you could replace the knuckle using hand tools you probably have in your garage, and you gain the peace of mind knowing your Volkswagen is riding on Moog parts; the official steering and suspension of Nascar.

Pre-Installed National Wheel Bearing

This Knuckle Assembly comes with a new, premium Moog Wheel Hub replacing that old OEM. If you're replacing a rusty wheel bearing you don't want to bolt your tire onto a wheel hub that has also rusted over time.

Replace several old rusty parts at once and possibly save yourself a trip to the local shop later on. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Speaking of which, the threads on your axle nut deform when you torque it down and again when it's removed. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Wheel Hub

Bearing replacement on these Volkswagen year models require the removal of the whole knuckle assembly. So, instead of removing the knuckle, pressing out the old bearing, pressing in the new bearing, and making sure it's all done to spec with the correct parts, why not put a new complete knuckle assembly on your Volkswagen with the bearing work already done?

With the new premium National Bearing already installed in the knuckle by the experts at Moog, the time it takes to replace the wheel bearing on your Volkswagen just got cut in half.

The threads on your axle nut deform when you torque it down and again when it's removed. Make sure you use the new axle nut and locking ring provided with the knuckle assembly.

Knuckle and Backing Plate with E-Coat

The Moog knuckle and backing plate are both finished with a corrosion resistant E-coat, which comes in handy when the roads are salted during those infrequent ice storms here in Stephenville, TX. The E-coat provides a protective layer that covers even those hard-to-reach spots on your knuckle and keeps moisture and contaminants from taking hold. These parts are designed to keep your Volkswagen riding smoothly for the next 100K miles.
