I purchased a new 2008 gmc yukon denali in january of 2008 .this carhas 60000 miles on it and hasnever been in a accident .i have replaced all 4 tires on the truck due to a constant lose of air in the tires to find out after replacing the tires that the lose of air is due tothe air leaking thru the rims .i understand that you are going to have wear and tear on a vehicle but in all of my 30 years of driving i have never heard of the rims going bad on a car. As i see it the rims are like the foundation of a house and should last the life of the truck . You should not have to replace such an item ,also after looking on line and contacting the dealer it has been brought to my attention that this is a common problem with several gm trucks made between 2006-2010.also as a result of the air leaking out as the truck was being driven by my wife she made a turn and as she was turning the tire gaveout due to a lose in pressure.

Where to start. I bought my new 2008 honda crv in january of 2008. In february i has a low tire indicator light and brought it to my local garage for a tire check. Nothing wrong with the tires, but they put air in them.i have had the same problem without fail about 6 times in addition to my regular maintenance appointments. I have had my services at each service indicator and performed all of the indicated codes. Tire rotations at each service by a honda dealer. At my second service on 1/30/09, 16,000miles my tires were marked as 6/32 wear tread remaining. At my third and most recent service 9/5/09 the tires were marked as 4/32 remaining, and i was advised that i would need to buy new tires at less, this is with 26,000 miles on the vehicle. I contacted bridgstone/firestone regarding the short life of the tires and they said that they know about the problem, but that it is honda that is buying poorly made"cheap" tires and putting them on their new vehicles because they do not warranty them for mileage. Then honda makes out like bandits for selling you new tires in 18,000 to 32,000 miles with an added cost for mounting and 4-wheel alignment at just about $800.00. The honda service tech seemed to get some humor in telling me that i needed new tires at 26,000 miles and was very accommodating as far as providing me a price for the same exact pieces of crap that came with the vehicle, plus mounting and balancing fee, plus a 4 wheel alignment fee. If i had known about this before i bought my vehicle i would not have bought from honda. I too was looking for a vehicle that was good in the snow we see in new england winters and had good gas mileage. What a scam honda has going!
