- replace lug nuts (2 reports)
I started to remove left front wheel to replace the wheel bearing and the lug wrench would not fit onto the lug nuts. I ended up replacing the nuts at a cost of $130. I don't understand why a car with original wheels and nuts will not work with the lug wrench equipped with the car!

Cronin Ford, Harrison, Ohio said these lug nuts frequently swell and make it extremely hard to get the tires off.
I could not rotate my tires without replacing swollen lug nuts.
I must pay $7 each for them and there are 5 on each tire. They can't tell me when it will happen again and I will have to pay to replace again.
How dare Ford sell me a vehicle with this problem!!
