[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We kept our 2001 Honda Accord with 220,000 miles on it. Dh won’t let me drive it with or without the kids (originally it was mine purchased in law school), and he’s afraid to drive it beyond work. We just got our routine oil change and tire rotation in August. Well, the lug nuts broke since then and the whole damn tire flew off while he was driving on the highway at 60 mph. Luckily, he wasn’t hurt. Lots of damage to our beloved car and USAA was like yeah we’re not fixing that old ass car! So, I would advise not to put too much money on repairs on a car that’s old and super high mileage and know if something major happens it’s gone. At least, Dh wasn’t hurt and no one killed. This wasn’t even noted as an issue with our oil change either so it’s not like we weren’t keeping up with maintenance.[/quote] Wow. Glad he was ok. Is there a chance the mechanic didn't put the lug nuts on properly when they rotated your tires?[/quote]
