Has any1 gone to auto service for oil change & rotation and they break the screw on the wheel? detail.?

So this has happened more than once to me...they remove the tires and rotate them, and then all of a sudden when either putting the tires back on, or when removing a tire, a nut gets broken and they say it costs 30 dollars to replace it....are they screwing with me or what?Has any1 gone to auto service for oil change %26amp; rotation and they break the screw on the wheel? detail.?
Go to a proper dealers workshop, not some crappy local garage, and insist that they torque up the wheel nuts to the correct specification.





It sounds like they are getting heavy-handed apprentices to do the tyre rotation, and they are using impact guns instead of torque wrenches to do the wheel nuts back up again.





This is bad in so many ways, probably the least of which is that it tends to snap wheel studs.





They could put a crack in a wheel, or warp a rotor, or warp the hub...Has any1 gone to auto service for oil change %26amp; rotation and they break the screw on the wheel? detail.?
It can only happen if somebody previously overtightened the lug nuts, to an extreme. It is virtually impossible for the person breaking the lug to have been at fault, unless he is the same person who has been overtightening it in the past. In 43 years I have only seen one lug break, and that nut was pretty much seized on the lug, meaning the removal attempt twisted it and snapped it.
when this happens taking the nuts off it is because they did not clean of the mud from the treads first, if it happens when putting the wheel on it is from over tighten the nut. so it comes down to who broke it, you or them, which one was useing the tools, that's right it was them, so they should fix it for no cost to you.
Could be the people installed the wheels before damaged the studs and then next person brakes them when trying to remove them. If this has happened more than once, this is what i suspect. also, the auto maker could have used studs that are weak and break esily., who knows? I allways put lube on the studs to help keep them from binding.. also, you dont need to rotate your tires. when the front ones wear out replace, same with back.
dude ur getting screwed


they should be responsible for that its not your fault it broke so they should pay for it they just want more money and something else to do go back and get your money
