Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly tightened
wheel nuts can cause the wheel to come loose
and even come off. This could lead to an

get new GM original equipment wheel nuts.
Stop somewhere as soon as you can and have
the nuts tightened with a torque wrench to the
proper torque specification. See Capacities

torque specification.

to brake pulsation and rotor damage. To avoid
expensive brake repairs, evenly tighten the wheel
