Consumer Description
MY GRAND SPORT HAS MULTIPLE WHEEL ISSUES, SAFETY ISSUES. THE WHEELS ARE PRONE TO CRACKING AND BENDING. HAPPENS OFTEN, TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK ON 2 DIFFERENT WHEELS, TIRES GO FLAT, WHEEL HAS TO BE WELDED OR REPLACED EACH INCIDENT. TIRES ARE NOT CAPABLE OF REINSTALLING MULTIPLE TIMES FOR SAFETY. GM DOES NOT WANT TO WARRANTY THIS SITUATION, COSTING ME HOURS OF LOST WORK, INABILITY TO TRUST THE CAR FOR REGULAR OR PLEASURE DRIVING AND COSTING ME THOUSANDS $. NOW, GM HAS A MULTI MONTH BACK ORDER ON REPLACEMENT WHEELS (AT MY COST) AND THIS CAR HAS NO SPARE AS THESE ARE RUN FLAT TIRES. SO CAR BECOMES USELESS AND UNSAFE. I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE 'THOUSANDS' OF SIMILAR OWNER SITUATIONS ACCORDING TO CAPSTONE LAW FIRM WANTING TO ENLIST ME IN A CLASS ACTION. I PREFER A GM SWIFT AND FAIR SOLUTION. THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR SUCH AN EXPENSIVE CAR AND FOR THE WAY THEY ARE TREATING US. DENYING ANY ISSUES. I DON'T TRACK OR RACE MY CAR, I'M AN OLDER DRIVER WHO ENJOYS DRIVING AND LIVE IN LOS ANGELES WHERE I DRIVE 50 MILES R/T DAILY TO WORK AT A WHOPPING SPEED OF MAYBE 20 MPH DUE TO TRAFFIC ON THE 101 FWY.
