Bought my GC from the store in Lake Sumter Landing in Feb 2017. This last November the two back tires were worn and I wanted to rotate them to the front, and I have a jack and jack stands. Was unable to remove a lug nut on one tire, even using an 18” breaker bar and standing on it - so it had over 200 lbs or torque on that nut.

I called Gordon’s Garage and explained that I just needed a lug nut loosened. The lady said that they did not do that because it would be a liability. I asked if they installed new tires and she said yes. I then asked how they change the tires without loosening and removing the lug nuts. No answer. I asked for a supervisor. She came back on the phone and told me that they would loosen the lug nut, but I would have to have and appointment, and would be charged. I said then that I am done with TV Golf Cars.

I had the nut loosened and reinstalled at the tire store in TV just across from Spanish Springs, and they it on the spot and for no charge.
