Loud humming sound coming from a ford five hundred when driving

That could be anything - from tire noise to bearing noise to the passenger in the rear seat! Where does the noise seem to be coming from - front? rear? left? right? engine? Is there anytime that the noise changes or goes away? Gets louder or softer? All these things help us to help you. Year and engine size are helpful too.

Humming loud noise

Sometimes depending on what type of tire you have, they can be making the humming sound, other than that you'd have to give more detail as to where you think it's coming from, like the back or the front, the engine or the wheels, transmission?

Loud Humming/Wheel Bearings?

When you turn and hear a noise it is usually a CV Joint that is going bad. Humming can be a lot of things. Tires wheel bearings, rear end differential etc.

My 04 ford explorer is making a loud humming noise when driving. The noise is coming from front and gets louder the faster you drive.

Try to rotate the tires to rule that out.If not then it sounds like the wheel bearing is going out, on some cars you can replace the bearings on others youi have to replace the hub assembly
