He just sent me a photo of the receipt. It states what they repaired and cost. Very simple invoice with NO fine print of needing to retorque.

If dot catches him, they will shut him down. the u-joints on the jack shaft are going to be in a heck of a bind, unless he jacks it up and chains it in place. I would have called back to the tire shop before I did anything, there is a good chance they have a shop somewhere in the area they work with on things like this. When I had my shop in NM, I went out and re fixed things like this for several shops, as far away as flagstaff and billed them, for it.

A dual wheel GOT me in Canada once, I never had a clue where it even came from, except out of the sky. lol It really was not that bad, but the estimate was over 10 grand to have a body shop fix it.

Your husband is indeed very fortunate.
That happened to me one time in a company truck that I was driving.
Never underestimate the Carnage that those Wheels coming off could cause.
If I told you how far those Wheels flew off of the truck I was driving and the velocity that they flew at, you would not believe me.
He is very fortunate.Cabinover101, Dave_in_AZ, TallJoe and 2 others Thank this.
