I had to change a few of my old parts including a front bearing about a month ago (86,000 Miles) I decided to do most the work myself and the money I saved I would do some extra preventative maintenance. So I decided to change ALL my bearings. I got the rear hub assemblies which included the bearings for 45.00 a side from Autozone. They where VERY easy to replace. I also got the front bearings from Autozone for 18.00 a side and simply pulled off the knuckle assemlies in the front and took them to a Meineke shop and they pressed my old bearings out and new ones in for 25.00 per knuckle. So I did all 4 for about $150.00.
And yes, the bearings are covered under warrranty. I purchased my Tib used and got the smaller 60,000 warranty and had to have my drivers front bearings replaced at 35,000 miles. All expenses paid! Since you have the 100,000 warranty, you should have no problem getting that work covered. UNLESS....they consider the bearings only fall under the 60,000 bumper to bumper, then you may have to go the route I went.
