question about dealer checking turbo

do you guys know if they would have taken the front wheels off when they were checking to see where that whistling noise was coming from?

I had those lugs at 80 lbs and when I was driving home today I heard clinking and rattling at the same rpm as the wheel rotation. I got home and checked and *gasp* both front wheels had completely loose lugs! On 4 of the 5 I could turn them with my hand with ease.

Tightened them back and drove it and it was fine. Yikes.

Call you dealer and tell them what happen, Be mad, I would. They could have killed you and a bunch of other people by having lazy techs that don't even make sure the lugs are on tight.
