“I bought my 2006 Volvo C70 in august of 2006 at galpin motors. I took my C70 into the dealership in may of 2007 because one of my tires was going flat. It turns out two of my 18 mirzam rims had gone out of round and one of them was cracked on the interior. No other damage was found to have occurred to the car. One tire had a slight separation due to the defect of the rim. The car only had 7900 miles on it. The rims and tires are not available for inspection because the dealership (galpin motors) lost them. …”
NHTSA complaint #10223074, filed 2008-04, 7,900 miles“I have a 2006 Volvo C70 and the tiers started to loose air. When I had the vehicle inspected I found out that three of the four 18' rims had cracks on the inside of the rim edge...with a little research I have found that this is a common problem with the 2006 Volvo C70. It is an outrage that Volvo does not yet have to fix this safety issue. Who knows how many accidents have or will happen due to a tire going flat on this model and rim size. I know that sometimes rims can get damaged however, all are cracking in the same area . …”
