Looking for a bit of help, knowledge, and possibly piece of mind. I have a 2013 F150, original owner, with 170K miles. Pulled out of my driveway a few days ago and noticed a large bolt on the pavement. It was sheared off about 3/4th of the way by the looks of it. I got under the truck and noticed an empty hole where it looked like this came from (front passenger wheel well area). Compared this to the other side, and yep, there's a bolt in that side. Looked around the interwebs, and this appears to be a body/frame mount bolt.
Question is, is this dangerous to drive or am I being a bit paranoid? This is the only bolt I can see that has come out. This truck has never been in a wreck, never been rough handled off road, and no rust that I can see underneath on the frame.
