Experts say that the bolts on the wheel were not fitted properly (not tight enough)

thanks

a few years ago my Father picked up his Mitsu Pickup after it had been serviced - a few miles down the road the rear left wheel came off but fortunately the pickup balanced itself ok and he was able to stop before any damage - dealer denied involvement as they said the wheels hadn't come off during the service, but due to impending legal action they refunded the service as a goodwill jesture

2 new pic's, the other ones are removed from the web I guess:

I just heard that thiefs probably tried to nick the wheels, but they didn't succeed, because of the special wheel bolts. Because of the pressure on the bolts that were still in place, the bolts broke and the wheel went his own way

would insurance pay out as there not LR wheels? I'd love to put 22's on mine but this is exactly what would stop me....along with the warranty issues
