2008 Lincoln MKZ Wheels Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1073095
Internal NHTSA #	10596158
Manufacurer	Ford Motor Company
Brand	LINCOLN
Model	MKZ
Model Year	2008
File date	22/11/10
Component	WHEELS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The chrome coating on the aluminum wheels started peeling and the air was let out of the tires. One tire had explosive decompression when the chrome peeled. If the vehicle had been traveling at even a moderate rate of speed the results could have been deadly. When the wheel loses air and sidewall integrity while moving the tire could just peel off the rim. I had to have the rim bead area sanded down to re seat the tire. The chrome continues to peel. This appears to be a common problem that lincoln does not want to deal with.
