Missing wheel bolt

[parraeel]

Car came back from service one wheel bolt short, and the service place isn’t open until Monday.. Is it OK in the interim to drive one bolt short?

[Umai Naa!!]

I would say yes.

Definitely go back Monday though.

yeah, it'll be fine - but if one has fallen out, then the others might not be far off. Likely the apprentice putting the wheels back on did it on the hoist with a rattle gun and didn't torque them when it was back on the ground

Check them all before going anywhere

It’s been nearly a week and the other bolts are good. I only noticed the missing bolt today when washing the car. It seems they forgot to put that particular bolt back on.
