Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2000 chysler 300m. myself and two neighbors have had this same problem numberous times this year. we are finding that the wheels are rusting/peeling and causing the seal on the tires to break, thus, causing constant flat tires. we've all had the wheels cleaned and re-sealed numerous times but feel this is a real safety hazard let alone a concern of owners finding flat tires all the time. our dealer indicated no recalls have been made and that there were some problems with the manufacturer of the wheels. that's it....we'd love to have these wheels replaced at no cost to us since they are expensive. any information would be greatly appreciated as to what we as owners (3) can do about this. *nm
