“The inside chrome wheels of my wife's 2006 Hummer H3 are flaking off and peeling. Pieces of the debris come loose at all times (especially while the car is in motion). My biggest concern is that it will interfere with the brake pads when they are needed to slow/stop the vehicle. Since my wife and children are in this car more frequently, I do not want this to become an incident that could lead to an avoidable accident. I have pictures that detail my concern with the inside of the chrome wheels that I could send to you (should you need them).”

The dealer dismounted the tires and the corrosion adhered to the bead of the tire ,and 4 inches of the tire stuck to the rim of the tire. The dealer informed the contact that they would pay to replace the tire, including grinding off the corrosion on all 4 wheels. …”
