It's possible it has happened before, but it's an unusual occurrence. Sorry that happened. Have the brake drums ever been off for bearing service?
I tend to take a quick look at ours to make sure they're seated in all the way, before going any distance with it. I've never lost one as of yet.
The worst one I had was one of the original caps leaking a little grease and was obvious all over the white wheel. There was nothing obvious to the naked eye why it was leaking. I replaced it with a new one, and no more leaking. They're not very expensive.
