Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Tire pressure drops weekly. i must check my tire pressure at least every other week or it will drop below 20 psi. i usually run my tires at the maximum recommended tire pressure to reduce the interval at which i must check the tires. replaced tires and changed brands without any difference. right front tire looked low and was checked to be at 26 psi. i hit a pothole on the way home and put a severe dent in the rim. tire went flat approximately 30 seconds later. (speed at 45 mph). replaced front wheel/tire with full size spare. rear tire which had 30 psi went flat and rolled off the rim in a corner within 5 minutes. rear rim also had a dent. it appears to be a corrosion sealing issue. the rims are 17" aluminum with steel center cap mounting brackets and bolted to a steel hub. i will paint the new rims and hubs to prevent the steel to aluminum contact which has been suggested to be the cause of the corrosion by a different dealer. *la
