Consumer states that while driving and no warning the rim is cutting the tire causing the tire to lose air and the consumer is force to pull over. Dealer notified. Mr.
All four rims are causing the tires to lose air pressure. Consumer had to replace air in right front tire every morning, left front tire once a week, and both rear tires every 3-4 weeks. Dealer was notified.
In 2. 5 yrs I have had 5 rims bend resulting in blown tires. Very poor design. Chrysler needs to handle this before somone gets hurt or dies!!! and it is very expensive!!! (tiresize: p215/50r17)( dot number: tire size: p215/50r17 ).
I have had 4 flat tires since I purchase the vehicle less than a year ago. At first I thought it was the tires, but after the fourth flat, and seeing other complaints on this website, I realized it was the car. The rims bend, releasing air and the tires go flat. Then the rim wrecks the tire, and bends further. Essentially, it is a car that can't even be driven. The previous owner had to also replace all 4 tires but didn't tell me until later, and sold the car to me with only 10,000 miles on it. At $200 a peice, it really adds up. I have contacted Chrysler and they continue to drag their feet. I feel these cars should be re-called, especially after hearing the numerous complaints from other Sebring owners having the same problems. (tiresize: 2155017)( dot number: tire size: 2155017 ).
All four wheel rims bent, causing steering problems which may result in loss of control. Dealer said consumer needed to replace all the rims. Previously, replaced front brake rotors . Please provide further information.
Wheel rims leak air, cousing tires to go flat.
The rims on all four wheels are bent due to a defective design which may cause a tire blowout. Common problem.
I have a Chrysler Sebring lxi 1998 with 17 in. Low profile wheels currently 64,000. I notice that city driving has been extremely hard on my wheels. The first year that I had it, the rims bent under regular road travel. The inability to handle regular driving appears to be to uncommon and I felt that I must file a complaint before this goes unnoticed.
Possibly wheel rim failure.
Rims are bending easily and tires will not stay inflated. Consumer had to have rims repaired 7 times. Consumer also started a file with Chrysler #8432551.
Replaced the rims on all four wheels five times due to premature cracking. Please give any further details.
