Consumer Description
I have had two separate incidents of cracked wheels. I drive the vehicle on normal roadways and have had no impacts with curbs, debris or significant road hazards. The wheels show no signs of any impact or damage, just a crack. Of course the cracked wheels result in a rapid loss of tire pressure. BMW will not warranty the wheels and replacement of each has cost me $800. I feel the wheels were obviously not engineered properly to withstand the load and forces of normal highway driving. The First cracked wheel was in November of 2023 - right front. The most recent was August 2024, left rear. The vehicle had approx 30,000 miles at the first incident and most recently 38,000 miles for the second incident.
