Well i was about to change the brakes and this wheel lug came off but not just the wheel lug. it came out with the whole bar (what ever u call it) look 4 ur self. i didnt know where to put this post so sorry if its in the wrong 1.

Broken stud.... I dont know if it will be covered under warranty or not....all that needs to be done is having a new stud put on.

um you dont need to weld anything

go to a parts store and get a new stud and a lug nut remove your wheel remove the hub puond out the broken stud and pound the new stud back in the hole

there are a few step by step guides with pictures on how to replace studs in the maintenance forum. here's the one i used when i needed to replace one of mine. clicky

even if its not covered, it only costs like $3 for a new wheel stud and takes hardly any time to put the new one in.
