 Description of the problemWheel, made of aluminum, developed a crack on the inside of the right rear tire, without my noticing any reason. One day i just noticed that there was a slow lead in the right rear. America's tire wouldn't repair the leak and said i had to buy new tires. I did and the next day the right rear was flat again. I took it back to america's tire and they found the crack in the rim. The car had less than 26,500 miles on it at the time. The chevy dealer took pictures to verify for gm that there were no signs of the car being raced or abused, but gm declined to replace the rim saying it wasn't defective. The chevy dealer ultimately sold me a new rim ($1,000 on my car) and charged me $50 extra for a core charge as i wanted to keep the cracked rim so i can show anyone who wants to see it that there isn't any impact marks on the medal in the area of the crack, i. E., the rim just cracked. My car is a very expensive limited edition car with very big rims. I am attaching pictures of the crack, one with the tire mounted and leaking air and two with views of the crack once the tire was removed.
