Rims on 2002 Pontiac Grand Am have the chrome peeling causing a poor seal and air to leak from tires. Tire service center had stacks of these rims in the back from people who have had to replace all 4 rims.

Grand Am

While driving at low speed a noise was coming from the front tires. When moving at high speeds consumer could not hear it. Tires continuously deflated. The inside of the wheel cracked, which punctured the tire. Consumer had to replace the front rims. However, the noise did not start off loud, it got louder as driving. Whenever it rained and the vehicle was wet consumer would not hear the noise. Pontiac was aware of this problem.
