parts store can give you the size you need from whatever brand they may carry..but a word on batteries..AC delco makes most car batteries along with national gould, a subsidiary of johnson controls..and there is interstate(which I personally dont care for).. now AC delco makes batteries for almost all the parts stores like autozone, advance and napa ..carquest usually carries the national gould ones as do most farm and home stores..walmart and such have AC delco batteries..all are ok..but most AC delco batteries last much longer and have more power than the others..you should be fine with one from autozone..but I would go with one a bit more powerful than what is called for..higher cold cranking power..my dadused to sell vx-6.. a liquid cadmium battery additive that was added into the electrolyte so it boosted the batterys' power and mechanical life in some cases over 150%..he taught me which battery types to stay away from..interstae was on the top of that list..his reason, they used recycled lead plates in new cases and sold them as new batteries..

In most cases - You are.

Has this happened or do you think it will?

Laws vary from country to country but in all cases you are responsible for ensuring your car is safe. You should perform regular checks to ensure that.

When it comes to parts of the car that require expertise to maintain/fix then you have an obligation to get them fixed though if a job isnt done right & an accident occurs then the mechanic would be liable. a wheel coming off is a bit of a grey area in this respect.

Why not check that it is on right & tighten the nuts if it is not?

so dont use it with your bike carier
