A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO A TIRE COMPANY FOUND A CRACK IN ONE OF THE REAR WHEELS OF MY 2017 CORVETTE GRAND SPORT. THE CRACK WAS PERPENDICULAR ACROSS THE INSIDE RIM OF THE WHEEL WHERE THE TIRE BEAD MEETS THE WHEEL. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER WHO EXAMINED THE WHEELS AND FOUND ANOTHER IDENTICAL CRACK IN THE OTHER REAR WHEEL. OTHER THAN THE CRACKS, THE WHEELS WERE UNMARRED. WHILE CLEANING MY WHEELS, I NOTICED ANOTHER IDENTICAL CRACK IN THE IDENTICAL LOCATION ON ONE OF MY REPLACED REAR WHEELS. THE WHEEL WAS OTHERWISE UNMARRED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A CHEVROLET DEALER, WHO TOOK PHOTOS AND SENT THEM TO GM FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT APPROVAL. GM DECLINED TO COVER THE WHEEL UNDER WARRANTY. I APPEALED THE DENIAL WHICH WAS GIVEN GM CASE [XXX]. THE APPEAL WAS DENIED. I ASKED THAT IT BE ESCALATED AND THAT ESCALATED APPEAL WAS DENIED. GM STATED THAT AFTER EXAMINING THE PHOTOS, THEY DETERMINED THE CRACK WAS NOT A RESULT OF DEFECTS IN MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP. THESE CRACKED WHEELS CONSTITUTE A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD, PARTICULARLY SINCE THEY ARE IN AN AREA THAT MOST CONSUMERS WOULD NOT INSPECT. I BELIEVE THE CRACKS ARE A RESULT OF POOR DESIGN, SUBSTANDARD MATERIALS, POOR WORKMANSHIP OR A COMBINATION THEREOF.

THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 10K MILES ON IT. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR MONITOR FOR THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE CAME ON. IMMEDIATELY WENT TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THE WHEEL HAD A CRACK IN IT; WOULD NEED A NEW WHEEL. WAS TOLD WOULD TAKE AT LEAST A MONTH FOR THE PART TO COME IN; IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING, COULD NOT WAIT A MONTH. FOUND A RIM REPAIR SHOP THAT REPAIRED THE CRACK AND ALSO NOTED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER WHEEL WAS BENT. THE REPAIR SHOP FIXED BOTH PROBLEMS OR SO I THOUGHT. WAS TRAVELING TO MY NEW WORK DESTINATION AND THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE SENSOR LIGHT CAME BACK ON. FOUND ANOTHER RIM REPAIR SHOP WHO TOLD ME THAT I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE - THE WHEEL HAD OTHER CRACKS IN IT. HAD TO ORDER A NEW WHEEL FROM A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP.
