 2002 buick lasabre limited has aluminum alloy wheels that are seriously corroding at the sealing rim causing a serious loss of tire air pressure. we had to pay our buick dealer to clean and epoxy coat the wheels to stop the leaking. it failed to resolve the problem. we have to check the tire air pressure every day or 150 miles or the tires can become so deflated that they are unsafe. this issue is just as serious as the ford explorer/firestone tire issue and no one at buick or gm will admit they have a problem. *tr

 Replaced left front wheel bearing aug 2005 (50500 mi) then in dec 2006 (73600 mi) had to replace right one. suspect those failures have been factor in rotors needing to be turned. *jb
