Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had a flat tire and needed to install the spare tire. I jacked the vehicle up and tried to take the wheel lug nuts off. The manufacturer supplied lug removal bar's head would not fit over the wheel lug nuts. Consequently, I was not able to remove the flat tire and install the spare tire. Saftey was compromised by having to drive on a damaged tire approximately 10 miles to a repair shop. Had I been out of town or on a highway the saftey issues would have been greatly magnified. The repair shop had difficulty removing the lug nuts. …”
NHTSA complaint #11428846, filed 2021-08“During normal dealer service interval, I was advised by car dealer that lug nuts were in need of replacement.

Service agent advised they “see it all the time.” As this seems like a safety issue, I inquired if there was a recall or service bulletin. Advised, there was none. Work was completed. I contacted Ford Motor Company and asked about issue and reimbursement. They told me it was a known issue and that no recall existed and therefore they would NOT reimburse. …”
