2003 4 runner possible trouble

I Have a 2003 4 runner sport edition v8 black

I took my runner to the dealer for a 6000 miles oil change

and a tire rotation......while i was there they told me they was going to have to replace 2 studs in the tire ...stated they where just spining when they attempted to remove the tire...(front tire)

My question is should they have replaced the hub or was it ok to just replace the studs..

also my brakes now seem different could they have done something to scew them up ...(softer pedal)...i don't want to have trouble with rotors already done that with my 2000 model 4 runner....at this early stage is there any way to tell if they did something to cause premature damage to the brakes or rotors............(warping)

any suggestion would be great

I REALLY DON'T THINK I COULD HANDLE PROBLEMS WITH THIS 4 RUNNER MY 2000 MODEL ALMOST DROVE ME CRAZE

Sounds like just 2 bad studs. Doesn't sound like a major issue. Bad studs are very easy to replace. Just pull the bad studs out and replace

As for your brakes, I can't comment as maybe you're just overreacting?
