There are a couple symptoms of a bad wheel bearing. The most common is a moaning sound related to speed. The other is play in the wheel, but you'd have to jack it up to check for it. Sometime the play isn't there, but usually the noise is.
Most recently I had a wheel bearing go bad in my Subaru with no symptoms at all, except it failed PA annual inspection. The mechanic pointed out to me that the wheel is wobbly. I had to see it for myself. It had play up and down as well as left-right. It wasn't the ball joint, nor the tie rod. He was actually surprised that when he test-drove it he didn't hear anything.
