{ CAUTION
Incorrect or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause
the wheel to come loose and
even come off. This could lead
to a crash. If you have to replace
them, be sure to get new 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

Notice: Improperly tightened
wheel nuts can lead to brake
pulsation and rotor damage. To
avoid expensive brake repairs,
evenly tighten the wheel nuts in
the proper sequence and to
the proper torque specification.
