Some time ago- about five years ,i purchased a 2006 chrysler 300 touring from franklin automall- mall in franklin township -what i have been experiencing endless times and concern that the lug nuts that hold the wheels on are (defective) i have purchase a set of new lug nuts in the past last set was 2013. what is happening is that i went for my brakes to be looked at a pepboys on 3016-2015in pomton plains nj,the problem was there lug nuts could not be removed. these type lug nuts- the outer casing separates from the lug nut itself, and spins around and around, difficulty to remove lug nut(s). any kind of brake repair or removing of a wheel.in event of a flat (i would certainly be stuck.) and again pay for new studs to be put in.chrysler has not changed these lug nuts that i am aware of- to better and more efficient ones, that has no outer casting that spins -preventing lug nuts to be removed. replacement sets-- were another set of lug nuts from the chrysler dealer from franklin sussex county auto mall,i was told at that time there are no replacements !!!!!!!...on thursday 3-25-2015 my car is going to another pepboys for brakes to be looked at in verona nj. im sure i will be the one getting stuck with the bill .for new studs.in closing the pep boys in pompton plains had a hard tome to get them off and the two were mangled i managed to get one off with not great ease at all.two in total-there needs to be a recall correct this constant problem with these brand of lug nuts,the outer castings don't hold up in any kind of weather and smooth out constantly.creating this over and over problem. *tr
