Lose nuts ?
I have a F-150 2013 Platinum Ecoboost 3.5 L.
I had a problem on a few occasions so far. Loosen wheel nuts. Recently, on one of the wheels that have 6 nuts, 3 were loose and I could continue to loosen them up by hand. My mechanic said that there is a problem with Ford nuts. The degree of inclination of 30 ° which ends by rounding the end fact that nuts loosen or become extremely difficult to loosen despite the fact that they have been torquees to 150 lb/ft. Have you ever met this problem. My mechanic tells me even as a client who has a F-150 had lost a wheel on the road in Ontario and made representations to Ford. At the same garage Ford in the province of Quebec, there are 2 other customers more than me with this problem! Have you ever heard about this problem (issue)?

I've heard the same thing here on more then one occasion with the ford lugs.
Swollen nuts apparently.
