Consumer Description

Ford dealer told me the lug nuts were a bad two piece design and he has had to replace many of them by drilling out the studs and replacing them. Encouraged proactively replacing the 2 piece lug nuts with a new one piece design for a cost of $128 for 4 tires. Not covered by warranty/extended but this seems ridiculous for a vehicle that's 6 yrs old. I see lots of references on the internet to this issue. Seems like a straightforward bad design and obvious recall issue.
