Is it safe driving around with 1 sheared bolt?
So the garage who installed my tpms over torqued the wheel nuts, I got them all out and put them back in to my usual setting. 1 bolt sheered of so is it safe driving around like this for a few days until I get it into the dealers?
If it makes a difference it's the rear passenger wheel.

Thanks for the help.
Now what is usually the fix for this? do they replace the whole hub assembly?

If the op had all wheels worked on he needs to change all 20. The shop may have a torque wrench that maybe set to 85-90lbs but could be out of calibration. My buddy had his wrench set to 100 and ripped a stud right off his Corvette Z06. The calibration was way out and that was because he didn't put it away set at zero. He was forced to replace them all because he couldn't be confident out on the track. Be safe OP, you don't want to catch a hard corner and off goes your wheel.
