WHEELS:RIM
AIR LEAKING OCCURS IN 2 TIRES. MITS SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHECKED TIRES & STATED THEY ARE FINE. THEY STATED THE PROBLEM IS AIR LEAKING AROUND THE 2 RIMS AND THAT SEALS ARE BREAKING, POSSIBLY DUE TO WHEEL CORROSION. THE PROBLEM IS WORSENING. THIS IS THE 2ND SET OF WHEELS. MITSUBISHI REPLACED ALL 4 WHEELS ONCE BEFORE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM--AT THAT TIME, AIR LEAKED OUT OF ALL 4 TIRES. MITSUBISHI STATES THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THIS SET OF WHEELS DUE TO VEHICLE AGE AND PROBABLY NO INVESTIGATION ALTHOUGH AT LEAST 9 CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA WEBSITE ARE LOGGED ON THE SAME MAKE/MODEL. NOT SURE WHY ANYONE SHOULD EXPECT IT'S ACCEPTABLE TO NEED A 3RD SET OF RIMS FOR A 6-YEAR-OLD CAR. COINCIDENCE?
