Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Cracked rims. Three of the four rims on the car have cracked in the last four years. These are the original rims with factory run-flat tires. Two of the rims cracked, were repaired and cracked again. All five cracks occurred under normal city driving conditions. The dealer and manufacturer blame pot holes and speed bumps, but it is obvious the rims are under-designed to handle normal driving conditions, especially with the run-flat tires they provide.”
