Most likely a wheel bearing failure. Had the same issue a few years back.

very costly to repair?

Here is a link to powerstrokeshop. They have a few kits to select from depending how much you want to replace.

Cost me around $200 for the bearing unit which came with a new ABS sensor in it. Took a couple hours to change it out.

it's a bitch to get the old ones out of the old bearing..
