NHTSA Complaint #11443045 — 2017 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

March of 2019: I had unexpected flat tires, one front and one rear. There was no warning nor reason to suspect any damage. Took the car to the shop and had cracked wheels. As most Corvette owners, I pamper this car and would know/remember hitting anything. I replaced the wheels at my expense after getting no help from the Chevrolet dealer. The attached photo shows there was no impact- just a big crack. December 2021: I have one unexpected rear flat tire. Found another crack. Unexpected flat tires without warning is an obvious safety concern for me and anyone around me as I drive. After looking on the internet, there are 100's of complaints about this and multiple class-action lawsuits. This should be forced to be a recall and the government should step in. I am surprised that this has reached this point, as a risk analysis engineer. The field complaints have reached a point where the occurrence rate and the severity of the failure should flag action. Earlier in my career, I designed and tested wheels as a tier 1 supplier to GM. I know how GM Tire and Wheel operate. There are specs for impact and fatigue testing and I bet the poor design is very well understood. I hope you can help.
