| Wheel problems |
Both front wheels have bent near the rim. Both times, the time and date of the initial failure was unknown. This damage was noticed later, when the vehicle started wobbling. The left wheel bent so severly that the air was let out. The vehicle has been driven safely and not under any unusual circumstances. Dodge has offered no assistance. Rim appears susceptible to damage, distortion and failure under normal driving. No potholes, cracks or other anomolies were noticed before damage occured on both wheels.
