How to handle this....

So I had a brake tsb done on my 2010 tundra about a week ago and all seemed fine. Today I took my first longer trip with my family since the tsb fix. I was about 60-70miles from my house getting on the George Washington bridge and I notice brake noise. Then the truck started to feel like it was being held back. I then notice the brakes were starting to lock up. I was able to make it to the first gas station in site and pulled in. The front wheels were trouble free but the backs were smoking hot. I checked to see if the emergency brake was on but it was not. I then climbed under the rear of the truck only to find to my surprise. Wait for it...... They left a f'n vice grip on one of my rear brake lines!!!!!!! I pulled it off and couldn't regain pressure. The car was towed to the nearest dealer where it now sits till the morning. The dealer was nice enough to give me a loaner and is going to completely go through the truck tomorrow. Your damn right I'll be at my local dealer when they open. How would you approach this situation?
