Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have had to replace 3 of my my 4 chrome alloy wheels as they are coming apart at a seam near the bead of the tire. My first thought was that the rims sustained a blow, but it shows no sign of impact. This strikes me as a severe defect with possible serious injury implications. The dealer's service department was rude and dismissed any possibility of a potential defect.”
NHTSA complaint #10031178, filed 2003-08, 66,000 miles“Consumer noticed that the tires looked as if they were going flat. Vehicle was taken to a dealer, who informed the consumer that the rims were the problem not the tire. The rims become pitted, and allowed air to escape through the pits. Also, tire dealer informed the consumer that many Chrysler products were having the same problem with their chrome wheels.”
NHTSA complaint #10079674, filed 2004-06, 52,000 miles“Chrome wheels, which are standard equipment on the limited series, Chrysler minivan, become corroded, and leak air at tire bead. I've had 2 flats, replaced the tires with new tires, and had 5 more flats. Tire dealers say problem is caused by Chrysler manufacturing process that causes flaking. Chrysler declines to do anything to solve this safety problem.”
