NHTSA Complaint #10910728 — 2006 BUICK LUCERNE

2006 BUICK LUCERNE CHROME WHEELS FAILURE. I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE FLAT TIRES CONSTANTLY. TOOK THE CAR IN TO A TIRE SHOP, I WAS TOLD THAT THE CHROME WHEELS ARE CORRODED TO THE POINT THAT THEY WILL NOT SEAL PROBABLY. I INFORMED GM ABOUT THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND GM WOULD NOT REPLACE THE WHEELS. THE LAST TIME I DROVE THE CAR THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE DEFLATED CAUSING ME TO LOOSE CONTROL WHICH RESULTED WITH ME GOING IN THE MEDIUM. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE. THE MILEAGE IS 80,000. THERE NEEDS TO BE A SAFETY RECALL DONE ON THE CHROME RIMS. GM KNOWS THAT THIS A PROBLEM AND WILL NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE.
