Purchased new on 11/12/2021. Recently, when the washer enters the final spin-dry cycle, it makes a very loud squealing noise. The wash and rinse cycles seem normal, but the squeal only happens during high-speed spin. Looking for advice on possible causes and fixes.

With this happening in the high spin speed specifically, the issue is likely the bearings in the gearcase starting to go out. W11449840 Gearcase | Genuine Whirlpool OEM In Stock
