Problem with Wheels

• Nov 09, 2007 - Pawcatuck, CT - Wheels
  1999 BUICK REGAL HAD TIRES REPLACED AT 30,000 MILES. CUSTOMER STATES THAT THE TIRES DO NOT HOLD AIR PRESSURE SO THE WHEELS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE WHEELS WERE MANUFACTURED OUT OF ALUMINUM WITH DEFECTIVE CHROME COATINGS. THE CONSUMER STATED THE TIRES WOULD NOT ADHERE TO THE CHROME PROPERLY.

  ALUMINUM WHEELS CAUSED THE TIRES TO LEAK, DUE TO CRACKING & PEELING. BOTH BACK TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED AT COST OF $400. DEALER REFUSED TO COVER REPAIR.

  ALL FOUR RIMS ARE PEELING AND BREAKING INTO PIECES , CREATING POCKETS THAT TRAP DIRT AND DEBRIS. THIS MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO ALIGN THE TIRES.
