The contact owns a 2018 Ford Expedition. While contact's son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the low tire pressure warning light illuminated. The contact's son drove the vehicle to the intended destination. The contact's son inspected the tires and determined that the front passenger-??s side tire was cracked and needed to be replaced. The contact arrived at the location. The contact and son attempted to remove the lug nuts and bolts; however, the OEM provided lug removal tool did not fit the nuts and bolts. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the contact was informed that in hotter states the nuts and bolts occasionally would become swollen, and the provided lug tool would not work as intended. The contact requested that all the nuts and bolts be replaced, to prevent the failure from reoccurring. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.
