When taking my car in for regular servicing, I was told that the tires could not be rotated because of swollen lug nuts. My vehicle has 11,777 miles. Without proper tire rotation, I cannot effectively drive safely without risk to myself and others. So, I opted to have the lug nuts replaced in fear of future problems should I need to remove a tire. Not being a mechanic, I have no idea what constitutes the look or feel of swollen lug nuts. My car was serviced on March 12 and 13, 2024 at the cost of $381.86 (lug nuts: $257.35)

Car was taking him for a recall on brake lines. Dealer phoned me and suggested that they replace the Lugnuts because they are a two piece. They are swollen and it-??s a safety issue. I agreed to have them replace them at my cost because there is no warranty on these defective Lugnuts I see that this is an ongoing issue that Ford has known for quite a while. I think they should reimburse the people for the money they have spent on the dealer charges or just warranty them for the rest people that come in with the same issue. I also believe that my dealer is way over charging 10 Lugnuts will be about $100 for me to pay whereas I can buy a set of 20 of them online for under $20. I think this is outrageous.
