Loose Lug Nuts sounds like it should be in that BITOG band names thread.
I got tires on my Escape in about 2013 and the next time I went to rotate them the jackass that spun the nuts on on spun them on so tight that I BROKE A STUD OFF trying to get it off with my impact. Probably a bad stud to begin with, but I did hit the rest with a little oil and let them sit before I broke them loose.I had one front and one back lug nut come off my Escape, don’t know how or why but it’s happened the wheel hadn’t been off for awhile maybe I missed them the time before on the torque. Just got new ones and replaced them and have never thought about it again till now lol.
I didn't know you traveled that far?East Egypt
I changed my oil Friday, was too "fagged out" had to come up stairs and put the oil in and check my tire PSI today!Me, and it was my fault. I did my brakes not long ago. I have some medical issues that make bending, sitting, lifting, sneezing, and sometimes even farting, quite painful. I got to my last wheel and just about couldn't finish because I was in so much pain. Lifting that wheel and tire (a Nitto Recon Grappler onto a 20" wheel) onto the studs finished me. I was past the point of pain. I started the lug nuts on by hand snugged them down just barely impact tight, no pressure at all, just took up all of the slack. Removed the jack stands, dropped and moved the jack, and never thought about torqueing the lug nuts on.
Next day drove a good bit. Something started feeling funny. Went and looked at the front tires to see if I saw any obvious issues, and 2 of my lug nuts were hanging on by about 2 threads and all the others were loose. Tightened them up and got ol' Mr torque wrench on them as soon as I got to the house. I was so embarrassed and mad at myself.

I get 20 of those tramadol every 6 months. They aren't worth a piss in the ocean. The good stuff makes me nauseous, but you can't even get the good stuff for a root canal any more.I changed my oil Friday, was too "fagged out" had to come up stairs and put the oil in and check my tire PSI today!
Pain doctor in the area got in trouble a while back, my PC took my Pain Pills off of me, off of everybody!
Never failed a piss test, never failed a pill count. AAMOF when I went for a Pill count, I had to hide some of them aside, because I had too many. SOB's make you feel like you're doing something wrong if you mention pain pills.
At least I'd have a decent day when I had them, Now, I'm not worth a dam.
Some people it does. Didn't bother me.I get 20 of those tramadol every 6 months. They aren't worth a piss in the ocean. The good stuff makes me nauseous, but you can't even get the good stuff for a root canal anymore.

Tell me that's a typo ?I changed my oil Friday, was too "fagged out"
That's slang from the other side of the pond for "Really tired."Tell me that's a typo ?
I couldn't tell you.So why don't new cars have the same requirement?
No it isn't. My grandmother used to say it, It means Tuckered out.Tell me that's a typo ?
No Google on your computer? (That's what everyone says here when I ask a simple question)Tell me that's a typo ?
I'll stick with "really tired "That's slang from the other side of the pond for "Really tired."
I have first hand knowledge of this happening once to a guy I knew 20 years back. Entire wheel fell off.Has anyone ever had the Lug Nuts loosen up or fall off after having new tires put on or had the wheel off ?
Was just wondering how common it was
Could you elaborate on this a bit? Are you saying that one doctor forced you to give him your personal medication that was prescribed to you by another doctor?I changed my oil Friday, was too "fagged out" had to come up stairs and put the oil in and check my tire PSI today!
