Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: For the past several months , my tires have been losing air- i thought that perhaps this was caused by the extreme temperatures. i continued to make sure my tires were at the correct level. three weeks ago, i had a blow-out while traveling home from atlantic city, nj.. the tire was replaced the next day... a few days later, the new tire, as well as the others, continued to lose air..i brought back to the service station and was told i would now need another tire. all tires continued to lose air- i brought to the service station again and it was discovered that all my rims are cracking and the sharp edges are cutting into the stem valves and causing my tires to go flat. i have now had to replace 2 tires that should have lasted me quite a bit longer and this problem will continue to occur as long as my rims are in the condition they are. i was told that it was inadvisable to go anywhere long distance until this problem is resolved. i have made an appointment today at the dealership for them to inspect and hopefully work with me on this defective issue. i have also contacted chysler's customer service center and reported to them this safe issue. please document and contact me with any further information. thank you-jo ann worbetz. *nm |
