Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
cause wheel nuts to become loose

wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, a cloth
or paper towel can be used; however,
use a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
