Defect Description:
WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
My left rear wheel developed a crack. Luckily I noticed this quickly, or a catastrophic failure could have occurred leading to loss of vehicle control and potential crash. These failures are well documented on the web, with 100's of owners experiencing the same failure. GM made a poor engineering/cost decision when deciding to use cast wheels on a high performance car with a large drum overhang and stiff low profile tires. Forged wheels are much stronger and should have used in this application. A GM dealership has looked at the problem and did contact GM. As with all the other cases, they refuse to take responsibility. Some people have gotten reimbursed for their cost by GM after arbitration via the BBB.
