Lug nuts on front left wheel came loose while driving home on vacation.Thought it was the wheel bearing but to my surprise it was the lug nuts.I got them all back tight but one stud broke.I have owned many Fords but this one seems to have a curse on it.The harmonic balancer was replaced a week prior to this problem.
