Lug nuts came off
 
I was driving back home after visiting some family for thanksgiving. I started hearing a really loud banging from the rear of the car I pulled over and realized that the rear driver side wheel only had one lug screw left and the other 4 were missing. I took on bolt of each tire and secured it. I just changed the bearings on all four wheels and I am sure I tightened all the lug bolts has anyone else had this problem? I drove the car a good 2 weeks before this happened. I do not think their was anything sinister at play if I felt their was I would of posted this on the Sherlock Holmes or Scooby-Doo forums :D.

Thank you!

That sounds really strange. When was the last time that you took them off? Impact wrench?

Maybe somebody was halfway through stealing your wheels when you showed up?

I hand tightened all the bolts I do not have a impact wrench... If anyone wants to steal the stock rims I have I would help lol! I have the most pedestrian looking rims on the car.

Lol, I'd say check the other three wheels. Maybe you broke the lugnuts them at some point, and then didn't follow through?

You'd be surprised what some brokeass would steal, Haha.
