how long can a roller bearing on a car last 5000 to 10000 or more miles or less or does it depend on the load

I would think a roller bearing should last for five hundred thousand through a million miles at least.

It is not a matter of miles , like any other piece of mechanical equipment it will last however long it will last . Car owners keep track of this because wheels are expensive , but with cars being inspected every few days and detectors everywhere there is no real need to set a removal date . But heavy use will put more wear and tear on the bearings .
