Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“21 Equinox EV RS wheel cracked at the lip even though we do not recall hitting anything. No known potholes or other impacts. This caused air loss from the tire and had to refill the air at least once a day. When the tire shop removed the tire to inspect it further we found no damage to the tire, just the wheel was cracked. Called dealership and they claimed it would not be a warranty issue. We ended up putting different wheels on the car as we didn't want to have this issue again.”
NHTSA complaint #11724791, filed 2026-03“The factory wheels on my 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV suffer from a recurring structural defect. Within just over a year of ownership, two separate factory wheels have cracked under normal driving conditions on standard highway imperfections without hitting major potholes. The local dealership refused to cover the issue under warranty, claiming wheels are excluded. This poses a serious safety hazard due to unexpected structural failures on standard equipment.”
