While driving on normal paved roads, a small vibration was heard from the rear of the vehicle. A person near the car when leaving the origin that morning heard a minor clicking sound at low speed from the rear of the vehicle. The vibration at that point seemed to be related to the rural mountain road that had some rutting. Continuing to drive, but onto better roads, the vibration became louder and louder, and appeared related to speed. Nothing appeared loose when stopping to charge. Vibration became loud (above conversation), stopped to inspect. Removed aerodynamic cover from lug nuts on right rear, and found two lugnuts completely sheared off (fell out when cover removed), with a third hanging on at less-than-finger tight. Vehicle driven slowly to safe location where it was towed to dealer. Dealer reported that the rim was bent in addition to sheared lug nuts as well as a damaged wheel bearing.
