problem #3

Apr 212008

300M 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 116,400 miles
On two occasions, the lug studs on the right front wheel have sheared, leaving only two (2) lug nuts holding the drive wheel on the vehicle. This occurred in April of 2007 and again in April of 2008. Both times, the wheels had been rotated prior to a long trip on the vehicle. The vehicle was driven from West Virginia to Florida, and on the return trip after approximately 1300 miles, the same wheel (drive wheel) lugs again failed. If this had not been noticed while operating the vehicle at highway speeds, the potential for disaster could have been very real.
