Consumer Description

SINCE I HAVE PURCHASE MY NEW CAR, 2002 CHRYSLER SEBRING, KEEPING THE TIRES INFLATED HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE TIRES. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED BY GOODYEAR AND THE CAR STILL HAS PROBLEMS HOLDING AIR IN THE TIRES. LATER I CHANGED TIRE MANUFACTURERS AND HAD FIRESTONE TIRES PUT ON. THE TIRES STILL NEED AIR PUT IN THEM EVERY 2-3 DAYS. FIRESTONE HAS SERVICED THE LEAK ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. WE TRIED PUTTING TUBES IN THE TIRES AND I HAVE GONE THROUGH 3 TUBES IN TWO WEEKS. THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE RIMS STOCKED FROM CHRYSLER. IT IS NOT A TIRE PROBLEM. THESE ALUMINUM RIMS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER STANDARD OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. FIRESTONE MENTIONED THAT THEY HAVE A CHRYSLER 300M WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS MINE. THE TIRES WON'T SEAL ON THE RIMS. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER CHRYSLERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND WOULD LIKE TO LAUNCH A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO HAVE THIS LOOKED INTO. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM (LOW TIRE PRESSURE AND FLAT TIRES). LAST NIGHT I WALKED TO THE DARK PARKING LOT AFTER WORK TO FIND ANOTHER FLAT TIRE ON MY CAR AGAIN. PLEASE HELP MAKE CHRYSLER OWN FIXING THIS PROBLEM. *TR
