Default Replacing Front Wheel Bearings

Getting some noise from the front wheel bearings. Smacked a curb last winter which attributed to the problem. Going to see if they can get replaced under warranty. If not, then I would like to do myself.

Are the Front bearing pressed in, If so do I have to take the steering nuckle off?

As long as you DON'T tell the dealership that you smacked a curb, they'll replace them under warranty!
Yes you do have to remove the entire knuckle to replace the pressed-on wheel bearing!
