Star, I'm glad you were able to go to the other location. I never thought of telling you about other locations at the time. I guess too I should have really paid more attention to exactly where you were as opposed to the place I called and spoke to the guy. I could have directed you to the closer location. Ah well it did work out. I can say I was IMPRESSED with the cleanliness of inside. Most shops are NOT that clean!
I'm so happy that you were spared with that lug nut. That is a very dangerous situation. been there done that. The thing about pneumatic lug tighteners, you should always go back over them and hand tighten them with the steel bar because while the pneumatic ones are quick and great for getting the job done, after you've driven for say a little bit sometimes they do loosen. If you are up to it have DF (if he can) tighten them all or go back to Frank's and as nicely if they would just recheck them for you. I'm sure they would. I've always purchased road hazard on my tires too. It does pay to get it because if you say run over a nail or any other thing, they fix or replace the tire for free and then you are not buying a whole brand new tire. I can tell you on 3 occasions where it saved me the cost of a brand new tire. (once when someone slashed a tire and twice for nails).
