The lug nuts are swollen and cannot be unscrewed. Also my electrical system inside my car goes off sometimes for unknown reasons. I'm talking about my stereo.
While attempting to change front brake pads, I couldn't get any of my sockets, of which I have multiple sets of both SAE and Metric, none would fit the lug nuts. After talking with a Ford dealership parts department, I was informed that the lug nuts swell and beating a socket onto the lug nuts was the only way to get them off the vehicle. This is unacceptable, and it was lucky that I wasn't trying to change a tire in the middle of the night. I immediately bought after-market lug nuts to replace them on the vehicle at a cost well over $100. This is unacceptable.
Three of the five lug nut studs on my front passenger side wheel broke off.
FOUND OUT MY VEHICLE HAD 2 PIECE LUG NUTS WHICH ARE DAMAGED WHEN REMOVED AND HAVE TO BE REPLACED WITH ONE PIECE LUG NUTS WHICH ARE $8.00 PER PIECE. AT 5 NUTS PER WHEEL ON 4 WHEELS THAT COMES TO $160.00. CAR WAS IN FOR SERVICE(DAMAGED TIRE).02/12/
CAR WAS HESITANT TO GO AND SKIPPING AND MAKES AWFUL NOISE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WHEN ON HIGHWAY ROAD NOISE. DEALER REPLACED CLUTCH AND SEALS AND DID A TRANSMISSION SERVICE. NOTHING WAS DONE ABOUT THE AWFUL ROAD NOISE
MY VEHICLE MAKES A GRINDING SOUND LIKE TGE FLOOR IS GOING TO FALL OUT , MY GAS TELL ME IM 50 MILES UNTILL EMPTY AND I RUN OUT ALSO WHEN I TURN MY CAR MAKES A LIKE A SCRECH SOUND AND ALSO SHAKES AT THE SAME TIME. MY CAR IS GETTING DO HOT ITS MELTING THR PLASTIC AND TIRE COVERS TO WHERE ITS RUBBING ON MY TIRES. MY VEHICLE DOES NOT WANT TO CATCH SPPED SEEMS LIKE IT WANTS TO DIE.
TIRES ARE WEARING OUT ON THE INSIDE A LOT FASTER. AM ON 3RD SET THE FIRST TWO SETS DID THIS AND THE DEALER SAID THE ALIGNMENT WAS FINE. I.FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS A CURSORY INSPECTION OF THE TIRES LOOKS OK BUT IF YOU GET ON THE GROUND TO CHECK THE INSIDE PART THE WEAR WILL BE ALARMING. I WENT ONLINE TO CHECK MESSAGE BOARDS FOR THIS MODEL AND NUMEROUS OTHER PEOPLE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.
