Focus

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles

I was driving on the I4 Florida and the car in front swerved out of the way and before I knew it there was a chain or piece of broken tyre on the road that I drove over that destroyed my driver side rear tyre. I pulled to the side of the road and got out my jack and spare tyre. Jacked up the car and then tried to loosen the nuts. Problem was that the wrench my car was supplied with did not fit. I was lucky because I was next to Stingray Chevrolet and a mechanic helped me change my tyre. I then went to Brandon Ford to let them know the jack and wrench were not the right size and things could have been worse (my wife has a disability). They did not care and said they swelled and would need replacing at $7 a lug nut (5 per wheel).

My biggest gripe is that I get a regular oil change and tyre rotation and they must know they are sending me on my way with a wrench that doesn't fit the lug nuts.

Flawed design by Ford and they won't fix it? I think that's bogus!

The lug nuts swelled and deformed. Made it almost impossible to get tire off. Would be completely f* stupid to get stranded on the side of the road and not even be able to change your tire to the spare. I hate that this lawsuit was dismissed by a corrupt and ignorant judge. Corporations like auto manufacturers should have to pay to fix this hazard.

Oh, and there was no recall to fix this problem. F** all our elected officials. They only care about money and getting re-elected. I hope they all rot in hell.
