1 Wheel Bolts problem

Failure Date: 02/16/2007

I was driving down interstate 91 in mass. Doing 65 miles per hour and everything was fine until I felt a slight vibration and with no warning my rear right wheel just snapped off. I was lucky to be able to stop the vehicle and keep it from rolling over or creating a pile up of traffic. When I had gotten out to look I found that all 5 lugs were snapped off and broken. There has to be some sort of defect with these bolts. My fear is that someone else may get killed. Now I am in a process of trying to have it repaired and everyone including Ford is passing the blame on someone else. Please help me.
