NHTSA Complaint #10262255 — 2005 BUICK RAINIER

ALL FOUR TIRES CONTINUOUSLY DEFLATE. WITHIN 3 - 4 DAYS THE TIRE PRESSURE CAN GET AS LOW AS 10 LBS OF PRESSURE. I MUST ADD PRESSURE ANYTIME I WANT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE TIRES HAVE BEEN CHECKED FOR DAMAGE THIS IS NOT THE PROBLEM. APPEARS THE TIRES ARE LEAKING AROUND THE RIMS. THIS PROBLEM HAS EXISTED SINCE OUR PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE IN OCT OF 2005. OUR SMALL TOWN DEALERSHIP HAS NOT TAKEN THE INITIATIVE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BUT HAVE ONLY STATED THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE RIMS. SINCE WE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE INFREQUENTLY AND HAVE OTHER VEHICLES FOR TRANSPORTATION WE HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE WITH THE INCONVENIENCE UP TO THIS POINT. THE VEHICLE, TODAY HAS LESS THAN 40K MILES ON IT. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I THE CONSUMER SHOULD INCUR THE EXPENSE OF CORRECTING THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE ADVISE HOW I SHOULD PROCEED WITH RECONCILING THIS PROBLEM. I'VE ALSO SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT UNDER ODI #10262250. AS I ALSO HAVE A SPEEDOMETER ISSUE WHICH JUST STARTED OCCURRING. *TR
