We have put millions of kms on our vehicles. We know about them loosening, however, there will always be people saying it is nonsense or an error in the initial torque. Follow your pattern, set the proper torque, every once in a while some will loosen on their own. That’s why we have pre trip inspections and a ton of regulations on our vehicles.

And if you over tighten then you are weakening the studs and can ruin your threads. Ounce of prevention as they say.
