| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I would like to report a defect of the rims on my mitsubishi eclipse gt 2000. i have owned the car for [4] years (original owner). i have replaced [3] rims and i am now about to replace a 4th. the rims bend easily while driving. on all instances the rims have bent in the course of normal city driving. just recently, (last week) i noticed that the rim on the front passengers side, as in the other incidents) is bent. i do not recall hitting anything or doing anything unusual that would have caused the rim to bend. on the first three occasions when i took the car back to the dealer for service i complained that there had to be something wrong with the rims. i never received i satisfactory answer. i even requested that they change the rims, because i only had the car one week when the first rim was bent. i believe they are hazardous!*jb |
