Never had that problem. Is the screw stripped or something? Man that must be a pain driving down the street and all of a sudden the car shuts off.

happened to me 3 times, once when i had my d16a6 and then twice with the b16. The third time i found a little lock washer and some loctite and still hasn't come loose. Also happened to my boy 2 weeks ago he thought he broke his timing belt.

Happened to me not too long ago. Scared the **** outta me. Thought my belt jumped a tooth. Man was I relieved to find that the rotor had just come loose

I don't understand how this happens. I work at a dealership and not once have I seen this!

Well I guess whoever puts on the rotor does not put tight enough.... GAH! But still!!! lol It shouldn't happen!

Happen to me like 4 or 5 times when i had a d15b and once with my b18a. But now when you buy the rotor at a autopart store like AutoZone or anything like that they come with loctite and a lock washer already on the screw.
