Consumer Description
ON OR ABOUT SEPTEMBER 11, 2018 I NOTICED MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS LOW ON AIR. I TOOK IT TO LES SCHWAB TIRE AND THEY REPAIRED A LEAK FROM A SCREW. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER I NOTICED THE TIRE WAS STILL GOING LOW I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT HAD A CRACKED WHEEL. I PURCHASED A NEW WHEEL FROM CHEVROLET AND HAD LESS SCHWAB INSTALL IT FOR ME . I JUST RECENTLY 2/22/2019 PUT NEW TIRES ON THE CAR AND THE DEALERSHIP NOTED THE BRAND NEW WHEEL I PUT ON THE RIGHT REAR HAS CRACKS IN IT NOW AS WELL AS THE LEFT REAR WHEEL WHICH IS LOSING AIR. THESE WHEELS ARE EXPENSIVE I BELIEVE THEY RETAIL FOR $800 EACH AT THE DEALER AND ARE DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS. MOST OF OUR MILES ARE HIGHWAY MILES DRIVING BETWEEN SAN JOSE CALIFORNIA AND ELK GROVE CALIFORNIA BETWEEN MY OFFICES.
