At least I gave Les Schwab two chances before i swore them off. They broke one stud on my 2004 Tacoma on a routine rotation. The second was on the next rotation I chose to have done right before I left town on a 1200 mile round trip. They blamed it on Toyota's cheap lugs and wanted me to bring it back the next day because they were too busy to fix it. I made them fix it on the spot then drove home and loosened and re-torqued them all myself before commencing my trip.
