Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“1 cracked rim and 1 bent rim. The cracked rim caused air to leak from the tire, so I got I became aware of it after taking it into a tire shop to investigate the issue. 8 months later I take the car back in due to a vibration between 35-40mph and I was shown that the rim was bent. I don't remember ever hitting anything hard enough to think that I could have cracked or bent a rim. I question the structural integrity of their 19 rims.”

However, I have driven on these same boston roads for 12 years and never had tire damage from a pothole before. Currently my total mileage is just under 1200. As I purchased a tire warranty, the warranty company has replaced the tires with new tires. They claim it is just bad roads. …”
