NHTSA Complaint #11459038 — 2014 FORD FUSION

I hit a very deep pit hole on the interstate causing a tire blowout on front driver side tire as well as a cracked rim on back drivers side. As I go to put the spare on I can't get the lug nuts off. The tool in the spare kit doesn't fit, resulting me to call a tow truck who couldn't get them off either. It took me 2 days to figure out the lug nuts were swollen and this was a common problem with Ford Fusions. My local Ford shop would not assist in the matter at all and still refuse to replace them. They should in fact replace them and also the cost of the damage caused by this. If the nuts were regular lug nuts I could have remedied the situation my self. No police or injuries were involved just lots of stress and money out of my pocket to fix it.
