Consumer Description
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE OEM WHEELS ON MY 2019 CORVETTE Z06 BENDING/WARPING/CRACKING UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. I HAVE SPENT MONEY HAVING THE WHEELS "STRAIGHTENED". I PAID TO REPLACE ONE WHEEL THAT WAS CRACKED AND LOST AIR PRESSURE. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET/GM ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY INDICATE THAT IT IS A ROAD HAZARD ISSUE. I COULD BELIEVE THIS IF IT WAS ONLY 1 OR 2 WHEELS, BUT NOT ALL 4. THIS IS THE SUBJECT OF AT LEAST ONE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I SEE REPORTS OF WHEELS LOSING AIR PRESSURE. APPARENTLY A BENT WHEEL CAN FATIGUE AND CRACK CAUSING LOSS OF TIRE PRESSURE. THE SYMPTOMS OF THE BENT WHEEL APPEAR AS ROAD NOISE AND ARE NOT OBVIOUS TO THE EVERYDAY DRIVER.
