Didn't we have a member here who had some work done on his truck...

I just bought one of these on ebay for $128. No more long trips without it.

Better bring a torque wrench along too. You have no idea how tight the lugnuts are with those. Torque sticks will get fairly close as well, but it depends on the impact wrench used along with them.

Glad you're okay Fentonite!



What I don't understand is why a manager isn't checking the work before delivering a vehicle.

If the manager has to check every item repaired by their tech's, the tech should be fired and the person who hired them as well. The Manager isn't there to babysit the employees.

Then what does the manager if not inspect and supervise the work of the employees?

This thread reminds me of why I did my best to learn to be as self sufficient as I can be.

This is why I change my own oil.

Wonder how they'd feel if, when they give your keys back, you whipped out a torque wrench right then and there and retorqued all the lug nuts with everybody watching? Give all the other customers something to think about.

Oh, learned my lesson about Jiffy Lube and Grease Monkey type places too. Never again.

I just had my tires rotated. They tried to get me to buy new lug nuts because the stupid sleeves that Dodge puts on them like to fall off. I declined. I'm also not going to check if they torqued correctly.
