After driving at speed for only a few miles we had to pull over because of the dreadful noise and vibration. When we checked the wheels pretty much all the nuts on the front wheels were able to be tightened or removed by two fingers. My question is regarding the level of compensation, whether financial or in free service, I should reasonably expect the garage to be offering. If anyone has suffered or heard about this type of negligence, I would be glad to hear about the final settlement between the car owner and garage.

When driving out of town, and getting up to speed, the day after paying over £1,100 for a service and the recommend remedial work my front wheels nearly fell off. Can anyone tell me what sort of compensation I should be accepting for having the lives of a friend, other road users and myself put at risk? Thanks in advance for any advice proffered.
