Consumer Description

WAS INFORMED BY A CAR WASH WORKER MY FRONT LEFT WHEEL WAS DENTED. I HAD NOT COLLIDED INTO ANYTHING NOR ANYBODY. AND NO ONE ELSE DRIVES MY CAR. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF A NEW WHEEL 432.00. THEY ALLEGED I MIGHT HAVE HIT APOT HOLE. IT MUST HAVE BEEN A VERY SMALL POT HOLE AND I QUESTION THE DURABILITY OF THE WHEELS TO HAVE CAUSED SO MUCH DAMAGE AND THEREFORE CREATING AROAD HAZARD OR ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD SHOULD THE TIRE HAVE BLOWN OUT. THE WHEEL WAS COVERED NOT UNDER THE WARRENTY. I QUESTION THE DURABILITY OF TEHSE WHEELS IN USUAL CITY TRAFFIC. *AK
