Re: My letter to WalMart

sanddrag, I would definitely send a copy of that letter to their legal department and customer service department at HQ. Youre doing them a huge favor, they'll probably appreciate it. VERY GP.

team222badbrad, your advice is spot on. Overtightened lug nuts are bad, and even worse are unevenly tightened lug nuts, which cause the brake rotors and hubs to warp.

I ALWAYS loosen and retighten my lug nuts with a torque wrench after someone else touches them. Always. Then I verify the torque after 500 miles. Look in the owner's manual, I am not aware of any manufacturer that does not recommend that.

Don
