Bolts on diff snapped again it appears

Was driving today when a quick shift to 2nd and hard acceleration caused the "thud" again. A look under the car showed the diff angled to the left touching the exhaust. I couldn't slide all the way under to verify it was the bolts once again but dealer has the car and will let me know. This has happened now less than 500 miles after they replaced the subframe and bolts. Will let you know what they find.

Update*. Dealer says same bolt(s) snapped again so factory rep is scheduled to come and look at the car next week.

Update #2: The car was looked at, damage noted, and dealer is awaiting parts to perform repair. So this is the 2nd time now within 500 miles of last snap.
