I just recently got brakes put on but when they were put on the person did not check to make sure the lug nuts were tight and I drove home that way and half way home I noticed a sound and that everything was okay until I realized that it is probably my tires are loose so I got back home and noticed I was leaking fluid. I don’t know what to do because I think its break fluid, any suggestions or ideas about what I could potentially fix? ---

This has to be a troll. ---

Wheel loose, leaking brakes after a brake service… I’d fix your choice of mechanics and have this car towed to a better shop. It isn’t safe to drive if you, yourself can’t fix the leak and make sure the loose wheel is tight and hasn’t damaged something. ---

This isn’t a troll its just really bad luck the person was a friend and he said he could do it for 200 dollars if I bought the parts. So do I just cut my losses on the parts I bought? That really sucks I would waste 1000 dollars on parts. ---

Your friend can bring his tools to you and fix his mistakes. Next time, go to a regular shop for important work like this. ---

You have a spare tire and lug wrench? Can you tighten your lugnuts? ---
