“My complaint is that the original black steel wheels on my vehicle have rusted. I am surprised that a vehicle will suffer rust on its wheels after so short a period of time. No I do not drive onto or near a beach. My car did not suffer sea water damage as a result of hurricane sandy. The black paint on my wheels is now a rusty brown. Is there any safety recall regarding these wheels? Please contact me. Thankyou”
