Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The rims on the 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse dent easily and the tires blow out or lose pressure as a result of normal wear and driving. Normal potholes and bumps are enough to cause damage. I had a blowout yesterday january 15th, 2005. I have previously replaced 2 rims and 3 tires as a result of this. All four rims are currently dented as a result of this issue. The manufacturer and local retailers are all unwilling to replace them with the improved rims on the 2002 and later models.”
