| Have had repeated issues w/dash warnning light saying right front tire pressure low. just came from tire shop. they told me them chrome is peeling on the inside of the rim causing a poor seal at the bead. from what i am seeing on different sites, this is not an single isolated incident. tire shop also said wheels similar to mine were recalled on cadillac models. | |||

| I took my vehicle in for new tires, over the next few days i noticed my tire loosing air. went back to dealership and they removed the tire to find the rim had corrosion on the inside. they had to grind out the corrosion to see if they could get the tire to seal. i believe this weakened the rim. i notified gm and they want to cost share the same type rims. i believe these rims have defective metal and said i was not willing to put the same rims on. they declined further possibilities. this vehicle has always been garaged. i feel others should b e notified of this problem. thank you, any help would be greatly appreciated. *tr | |||

| Tl* the contact owns a 2007 buick lucerne. while parked, he noticed the check right front tire warning indicator illuminated on the instrument panel. after inserting air into the tire the warning indicator turned off. the vehicle was taken to a tire shop on two separate occasions for the identical failures. the technician stated the failure was contributed to the aluminum chrome wheels equipped on the vehicle. the aluminum chrome was peeling from the wheel while causing gradual air pressure loss in the tire. the front passenger wheel was replaced. the front driver wheel exhibited the identical defect. the failure and current mileages were unknown. the vin was unavailable. | |||
