Calling it a “pretty scary situation,” Schmidt noted that the wheel “fortunately only took the side of — quite the damage.”“Check those wheel fasteners if you had them changed recently because of a brake job or because of the seasonal tire change,” he said. “You have to check your wheel nuts and make sure they’re properly torqued and tightened down and are not going to fail. This could have been deadly. And Mark is lucky that it didn’t go right into the occupant compartment.”
