Well it might have happened to someone that these were loose but it sure doesn't happen often. Maybe if someone had dropped the subframe piece and failed to do more than start the bolts back in, not retightening properly. They just are too big and designed not to loosen. Look elsewhere.
If you do find them (look up from below, not down from above) and want to put a wrench on them, please be gentle, absolutely don't overtighten them and shear or strip something.
Both points already made by others but I can't let the question sit out there as if these were something everyone should mess with.
Anything loose up front that should be attached to body, say window wash tank or charcoal canister, both hidden above RH inner fender liner? No wrenches got left behind in the "aquarium" ahead of dash? Hood latching properly? Exhaust all solidly hung? (I had annoying noise once from a cracked arm that runs from back of block down to the cat.) Anything rolling around in trunk spare wheel well?
A merry Christmas to you and to everyone else on here who celebrates it, and good times to all.
