yea mine broke on me before...so i had to order a new lock, one work of caution when putting wheel locks on, you tighten the wheels locks with your own strength only, do not use your legs to tighten them or use airtools...only your arm strength, that is all you need to do...using your legs is tooo much pressure on them...

Actually they do brake from time to time.
Mine broke, but it was not on the OEM wheels. Since it was a SocketLug and not a regular lug, the part that broke stay inside of the lug......It was a paint to take out.
Check this out CLICK HERE the have just about every lug and locks for any wheels.

I had my key break while changing a wheel on my integra. I drove it to the dealer and they wanted to charge me $85 or so to take them off all four wheels. When I calmly exlpained to them that the car was under warranty and the locks were on the car when I bought it they needed to do it for free. The guy still didn't agree, so I asked to speak to his manager, then when that guy showed up, I simply asked to speak to HIS manager. Eventually they were take off for free. NEVER GO TO RADLEY ACURA FOR SERVICES!!!!!!!! I now drive an extra 20 miles to go to a different dealer.
