NHTSA Complaint #10953807 — 2015 FORD F-150

THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE THAT FORD HAS FAIL TO RESOLVE.. CHROME PLATED LUGS NUTS ARE BECOMING SWOLLEN AND THE ISSUED LUG WRENCH WILL NOT WORK ON THE LUGS.. THE LOCAL SERVICE DEPART STATED THE FORD REFUSED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.. IF THE VEHICLE IF OUT OF WARRANTY, THE CONSUMER WILL BE FORCED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED UNTIL THE RIGHT SIZE LUG WRENCH CAN BE FITTED.. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A UNWARRANTED UNKNOWN COST TO CONSUMERS DUE TO A KNOWN DEFECT.. JUST A RANDOM SEARCH OF THE INTERNET FOR SWOLLEN LUG NUTS AND YOU WILL SEE ALL THE COMPLAINTS.. CAN YOU IMAGE SOMEBODY WITH A NEW VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE A TIRE AND THE ISSUED LUG WRENCH WILL NOT WORK.. MY LUGS WERE REPLACE BY THE DEALER ON JAN 31ST, 2016 HERE IS AN ONLINE FORD FORUM. HTTP://WWW.F150FORUM.COM/F118/SWOLLEN-LUG-NUTS-365302/ AGAIN, THIS HAS BEEN A ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS AND I AM SURE NUMEROUS CONSUMERS HAD BEEN CONFRONTED WITH THIS.. A SIMPLE ONLINE RESEARCH WILL SHOW THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS.. THE FUNNY PART, THEY PUT THEY SAME LUG NUTS BACK ON MY VEHICLE AFTER THE REPAIR.
