NHTSA Complaint #11389252 — 2019 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

I WAS DRIVING MY 2019 CHEVROLET GRAND SPORT CORVETTE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, IN OCTOBER 2020. MY TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE MY RIGHT REAR TIRE PRESSURE HAD DROPPED PRECARIOUSLY. I HAVE RUN FLAT MICHELIN TIRES AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME SAFELY. I INFLATED MY TIRE TO 30LBS PSI AND PARKED IT IN MY GARAGE. THE NEXT DAY I CHECKED MY TIRE PRESSURE OF ALL 4 TIRES AND ONCE AGAIN MY RIGHT REAR TIRE WAS LOW. IT WOULD NOT HOLD AIR. I CALLED CRISWELL CHEVROLET WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR. THEY ASKED IF I COULD DRIVE MY CAR TO THEIR FACILITY IN MARYLAND. I LIVE IN NEW JERSY AND I DIDNT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES TO THEM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE CRACKED / BENT WHEEL ISSUE AFFECTING C7 GRAND SPORT AND Z06 CORVETTES. I WAS ADVISED TO GO TO A LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM INSPECT MY WHEELS. I TOOK IT TO GLOBAL CHEVROLET IN NORTH PLAINFIELD ,N.J.. UPON INSPECTION, THEY DETERMINED I HAD A CRACKED RIGHT REAR WHEEL AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.. I DID /DO NOT ABUSE MY CAR.
