That is mickey mouse. Get a new replacement nut. I can't imagine why the nut would have been on and off so many times that it would wear out, but it's very dangerous for the wheel to not be positively retained.
Especially a left front wheel- that wheel can unscrew under normal driving. (Years ago a lot of cars had left-hand threads on the left front wheel to avoid this tendency.)
The nut should be just a few bucks at the dealer. There may also be a metal lockwasher with a tab that you're missing. Check with the parts guy for a view of the hub to see if you're missing any hardware.
