Town Car

  • miles
Wheel lugs: Studs broke off at the hub, vehicle was been driven on a extended charter as this vehicle is a limousine. The vehicle had been driven over the weekend on numerous trips as the client had the vehicle on charter for 2 days. The driver notice that the steering wheel started to shimmy even at low speeds. We have had the same scenario happen on another vehicle before. The nuts on the studs are treaded as though the wheel would still be tight on the hub. No sign of the vehicle being tampered with.
