: the contact stated the front passenger tire lost air pressure. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where the rim was found to be welded on the inside. The spot weld appeared to be the cause of the loss of air pressure. The local dealer recommended making an appointment with the dealer where the vehicle was purchased for repair.
