Got my tyres rotated yesterday by local garage in doing do they managed to strip the thread on one of the nut holes on the hub and the nut itself. They said it was because nut rusty is this possible or more likely the garage screwed up ? Not sure whether to take it on chin or kick up a fuss though to tbh I wouldnt want them near my car again seemed a shoddy outfit.

Sounds like they didnt start the nut properly on the thread before using a nut runner. Ive never done this and nobody has done it on any of my cars. Kick up a fuss, if it was that rusty they would all have threaded right?
Thanks for replies year going to complain dont think it will get my far with them though and if they cant manage changing tyres around what hope havevthey got with avhub, they had the car for 5hrs when i went there at 5pm still not done so they rushed.
