I replaced all four tires on my 2019 Grand Sport on 11/12/2022 with Michelin run flats purchased from Discount Tire. On Saturday, December 3, 2022, my right rear tire was showing tire pressure of 17 psi. I added air and it held until Sunday, December 4, 2022, at which time it deflated to 21 psi. On Monday, December 5, 2022, I drove it back to Discount Tire for inspection. It was determined that the tire was fine. The problem appears to be a couple small cracks in the wheel.
I researched the problem on the web as suggested by the manager of Discount Tire as he was aware of numerous complaints being made for defective wheels. There is at least one class action lawsuit open at this time. My question is: is there any chance of getting GM to replace this wheel (and possibly others once inspected) or am I SOL? Any input would be great appreciated. Thanks in advance, fellow vette owners.

Been losing air, but I couldn't find a nail. Took to America's Tires and they found the wheel is cracked. I paid for a new wheel to replace.

Bought the car with 7944 miles and noticed a tire was leaking air. Took it the auto repair shop and he noticed THREE cracked rims!! The car has 11,000 miles on it! I have not hit any road hazards or pot holes!
GM is trying to brush this rim defect off! I will not drive the car because this is a SAFETY ISSUE!
