2017 Mustang GT Premium w/ PP car. 4,550miles.
I do track the car and already have 9 days on track since mid-Feb. This past weekend at Barber MSP I rotated my wheels (18x10 square Forgestar) for more even tire wear.
1) One of the studs on the driver's rear broke off clean at the hub. I was not even close to the 150ft/lb recommended torque spec and the stud freely spun out of the lug nut, so obviously not cross-threaded.
2) When rotating the passenger side, noted oil (presumably diff fluid) on my suspension components and all over the wheel well.
3) CEL of P0390 that I cleared and it never came back.
Taken to local Ford dealer Monday morning. Before even truly looking at car, service rep states, "If there are outside forces, we won't be doing anything under warranty." Car has Steeda non-adj struts/shocks and progressive sport springs, along with stop-the-hop kit and several other chassis stiffening upgrades. This morning Ford calls to say they will not be covering any of the repairs under warranty bc the car is lowered and has been driven "too hard."
Thoughts?
