i hate this thing. its squealing like crazy! (like the brakes need to be done) and i checked them today they look ok, still like 75% left on them or so. but the heat, holy shit everything was so fucking hot! i didnt check the axle but the wheel was hot enough you could cook on it. i think it might be bearings, but its coming from both sides and it just started today, like this very morning

any ideas? how do i check the bearings?

A bad caliper on the passenger side. You'd be surprised how fast they will eat through a set of pads.
