The contact owns a 2006 Cadillac Dts. While the contact was driving approximately 25 mph, the tire pressure warning light indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a nearby auto service station where the technician detected that the front driver side alloy wheel rim exhibited corrosion which caused a loss of air pressure in the front driver side tire. The wheel rim was cleaned. The tire was re- mounted and re-balanced. The identical failure would occur every three months on a different wheel rim. The contact stated that all four alloy wheels were repaired over a period of time. The failure mileage was 18,000. Updated 12/21/10 updated 12/29/10.
