Hi everybody,
I searched around a little and couldn't find any other posts on this and I'm interested in your experiences with this.
Here goes.........
Do any of you E owners have a problem with your lug nuts coming loose and falling off ??
Yeah I know, you can all have a lot of fun with that one !
But I'm serious, I've had this happen to me at LEAST 3 times, maybe more that I'm not aware of. It starts with a cyclical, metallic noise, faintly at first. But over a short amount of time, as little as 30 minutes, it gets louder and louder, till it sounds like the wheel will come off !
As I said, this has happened more than once and the last few times I had it to the dealer to check it out, they told me I was missing a lug nut ( again, have fun with it ).
Now, just yesterday, I had it in to my tire dealer for the 5,000 mi. "lifetime" free rotation, and I see that one of the rear lug nuts is NOT on, AND the stud looks a little chewed up too. So, I call in right away and I'm takin' it back in today, hopefully with NO hassle !
Now I'm starting to think that this could have been my problem all along BUT, I really don't know for sure. Have any of you had similar problems ?
Thanks for any replies.
See ya.
