Maybe it's just me, but the saying "I'll fix your wagon" doesn't sound like much of a threat. Observe:
"I'll fix your wagon!"
"You know, now that you mention it, one of the rear wheels on Johnny's Radio Flyer is a little loose."
"Uh, well...I..."
"As long as you're here, you can paint the house and clean the bathroom."
"Uh, this isn't exactly going the way I planned."
"You should've thought about that before you offered to fix my wagon."
"Grr."
"Less grumbling, more fixing, please."
