The contact owns a 2021 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the vehicle was equipped with two-piece lug nuts. The contact stated that he had been working on the vehicle changing the tire and damaged the lug nuts causing lug nuts to bulge. The contact stated that he was concerned about removing the damaged lug nuts for fear of stripping the thread on the bolts. The contact stated he contacted a local dealer, the manufacturer, and the manufacturer of the lug nuts and was informed that there would be no assistance. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 30,500.
The Durango Hydroplaned and after I inspected the tires I noticed very bad wear patterns on the front tires at 17,500 miles both the inside treads on the front tires are completely worn off. I brought the car to the dealer and they confirmed the durangos alignment is out causing the tires to wear. They inspected the back tires and those were worn as well I feel like there is some type of manufacture defect and assembly defect causing the tires to wear prematurely. The pireeli tires have a UTQG: 500 A A rating that should wear to about 50K miles
