Consumer Description

THE WHEELS ON THE 2000 CHRYSLER 300M ARE CHROME PLATED, WHICH LEADS TO SLOW LEAKS INSIDE THE WHEEL WELL. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES TWICE DUE TO ABNORMAL WEAR AND TEAR DIRECTLY RELATED THE CHROME ISSUE. ALSO, THE I MUST RE-INFLATE THE TIRES TWICE A WEEK TO ENSURE THAT THE CAR IS ROAD-WORTHY. THIS HAS LED TO MULTIPLE DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS AND IS A COMPLETE NUISANCE. I HAVE HAD THE WHEELS GROUND BOTH TIMES I REPLACED THE TIRES TO TRY AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE, BUT IT PERSISTS AND DOES NOT MATTER WHAT TYPE OF TIRES I PUT ON THE CAR. THERE WAS NO INCIDENT, AND THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE AMONG AUTOMOTIVE PEOPLE. *TR
