OEM wheels had been taken off for winter and stored outside under cover. They had been fine when taken off. When put back on, one was found to have low pressure. It was pumped to proper inflation. The next day while driving, the low pressure warning went off. The wheel was checked and ~1" crack was found from the inboard outer edge of the rim toward the center. Rim is a 17"x7.5 BMW alloy wheel that came with the car. There was no damage to the tire, which had been put on about 7000 miles earlier. Wheel had about 120000 miles. Safety concern is from unexpected loss of air pressure putting tire at risk of excessive wear and failure.

When turning left or right, the power to the wheels is not engaged. However, when the tire is straight, the power engages. This action prevents you from driving normally. To drive, you have to straighten out the wheel straight. Then as you increase velocity, you make your turn. Can be very unsafe as you are driving if this happens (breaks) on the road.
