In addition, the dealer must maintain them to ensure they can service cars. I would ask to figure out which one fits and if it makes it easier, have "them" replace it with a non-locking bolt.
LOL I agree...I was thinking the exact same thing. So, I took the car to the dealership and they took the locking lug bolts out and I put regular ones in their place. Won't have to worry about breaking one of these again. Plus the car sits in a garage most of the time anyway.
