Using a good torque wrench and 100lbs a few days ago should have made it easy for Firestone. I wonder if some turkey didn't bother to hand start the lug bolts and cross threaded them with an air wrench.

All you can do is try to clean off the lug bolts and inspect the thread on the bolt and the carrier. Volvo says not to, but I like to put a little grease/anti sieze on the back side of the bolt where it touches the wheel rim.
