Talking Front wheel bearings part of Drive Axle?

I recenty purchased a 2008 Town and Country that falls under the Minnesota Used Vehicle Limited Warranty 30 days or 1000 Miles. Long story short not long after buying but within the above time frame I start to hear a hum from the front... It needs wheel bearings. Here is an excerpt from the warranty: I think they fall under #3

(d) For used motor vehicles with 36,000 miles or more, but less than 75,000 miles, the dealer's express warranty shall cover, at minimum, the following parts:

(2) with respect to the transmission, the automatic transmission case, internal parts, and the torque converter; or, the manual transmission case, and internal parts;
(3) with respect to the drive axle, the axle housings and internal parts, axle shafts, drive shafts and output shafts, and universal joints; but excluding the secondary drive axle on vehicles, other than passenger vans, mounted on a truck chassis;
(4) with respect to the brakes, the master cylinder, vacuum assist booster, wheel cylinders, hydraulic lines and fittings, and disc brake calipers;
(5) with respect to the steering, the steering gear housing and all internal parts, power steering pump, valve body, and piston;

I think I am going to get some resistance from them. What do you think? should Wheel bearings be covered under this?

Thanks for your time!

It seems on quick going over the bearing should be in there, but being wear parts like tyres, brake pads and shoes they maybe exempt.
