Flat tire and the stock jack sucks!!!!

Broke the lugs when the tire was still on the ground. got them loose enough to unscrew by hand.

Thought I did everything right.

hummmm... yah, it's not rocket science so no idea then.

and i assume you placed the jack at the jack points (between the 2 indents) while on a level surface. it shouldn't slip off.

ive changed tires in wet and icy conditions on my other cars and never had an issue with scissors jack.

So I drove by the same lot this morning and noticed there was a slight incline in the lot. My car was positioned so the front end was slightly raised. So I think that was the culprit. Being dark and rainy probably didnt help me to see the incline and wanting to get my son to is game, it was a perfect storm.
Again thank God no one was hurt!
