Default I apparently shook my shaker 1000 right off

I was driving tonight and as I made a turn onto a steep entrance I heard something rattling around in the trunk. I knew I didn't have anything back there, so as soon as possible I parked and inspected. I found my Shaker 1000 was no longer fastened to the car, it was just flopping around. I first thought there was foul play involved, but the trunk does not appear to have been tampered with and the bolts I found don't have any wear on them. The only explanation is that it literally rattled enough to knock the bolts loose. Weird since I have the bass turned down to only two bars, and most of the music I listen to isn't very thumpy. I bolted it back on, but I don't have any tools so it's just hand-tight for now until I can find a wrench.

This happen to anyone?

Alot of "RAP" music will do that!!!

Only kidding...

Must be a defect in the bolt assembly or just that they were never torqued down at the factory...

Vibration is vibration, no matter what style of music you listen to...

A little blue loctite on the bolt threads that hold it in place should take care of that. Had the same thing happen with the factory sub in my Marauder.
