I confess, I did the same to my car once and it will never happen again with the brakes. The left front calipers rear bolt feel out completely. Causing the caliper to swing out and hit the wheel. The wheel luckily kept the unit from swinging completely out and the brakes still worked. This happened at night and I climbed under the car and could tell the front bolt was loose also. So I moved the bolt to the rear allowing the brake to function OK as I limped home. This happened maybe 10 years ago and man it bothered me. To this day go over every bolt maybe twice once I am about to complete a job. Rushing a job is not good! Dumb Azz...
