2001 DODGE RAM 2500. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE BOTH FRONT TIRES HAD A SLOW LEAK. *MC THE CONSUMER WAS TOLD THAT ALL 4 RIMS WERE CRACKED. *JB
I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA RECENTLY AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM YOU. I DID NOT WRITE THE NUMBER DOWN SO I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT AGAIN. MY HUSBAND HAS A 2001 DODGE DIESEL THAT WE BOUGHT IN 2002. WE WENT TO PUT NEW TIRES ON THE TRUCK AND TOTTEN TIRE WOULD NOT LET US LEAVE WITH THE TRUCK WITHOUT PUTTING NEW RIMS ON IT. THEY SAID THE RIMS WERE DANGEROUS. 3 OF THE 4 RIMS HAVE CRACKS UP TO 3/8 INCH WIDE, ONE HAS 10 CRACKS. I BELIEVE THE RIMS ARE DEFECTIVE. THE TIRE PLACE SAID THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN RIMS LIKE THIS BEFORE. I AM ATTACHING A PICTURE FOR YOU TO LOOK AT. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT MORE DODGE TRUCKS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. IF ONE OF THESE RIMS WOULD HAVE BROKE APART GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I CONTACTED DAIMLER CHRYSLER ABOUT...
THE CONSUMER IS EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH THE RIMS. THE RIMS ARE CRACKING WHERE THE BEAD OF THE TIRE MEETS THE RIM. THE CONSUMER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. *JB *SC
WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH VEHICLE STARTED TO PULLING TO ONE SIDE. HAD STOPPED VEHICLE, CHECKED OUT TIRES AND NOTICED THAT RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS LOSING AIR, LIKE A SLOW LEAK. PUT AIR IN TIRE AND STARTED DRIVING, BUT TIRE CONTINUED TO LEAK. ARRIVED HOME, TOOK CLOSER LOOK, AND DISCOVERED THAT ALUMINUM ALLOY RIM FROM MANUFACTURER, HAD A CRACK THAT CAUSED THE LEAKING PROBLEM. CHECKED OTHER RIMS AND THEY WERE ALSO CRACKED. HAD NOT TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP.*AK
CONSUMER COMPLAINED ABOUT ALLOY RIMS ON 2001 DODGE 2500 VEHICLE. *BF ONE OF THE VEHICLE'S RIM CRACKED RELEASING THE AIR IN THE TIRE. *NM
THE TIRES KEPT LOSING AIR. WHEN A TIRE REPAIR SHOP REPLACED THE TIRES THEY NOTICED THAT BEAD ON THE EDGE OF ALL FOUR RIMS CRACKED IN 6 PLACES, AND WILL NOT HOLD AIR. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF IMPACT DAMAGE. DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED, BUT PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE BECAUSE WARRANTY EXPIRED. *AK
