Description of the problem	Retired us army veteran,,,,bought car used in 2010 with approx. 25,0000 miles from a dealer. It has chrome wheels. At approx 50,000 miles & 2015, the chrome on the wheels started peeling and i started getting low tire pressure warnings from slow leaking. Took it to the dealer< ( always dealer serviced) they said the rim is corroding and they have to remove the wheel and tire, break down the tire off the rim, grind the carrotion off the rim, put sealer on it and reinstall and rebalance the tire. Its not warranteed, so cost me $35 and took 1/2 hr. Since then i have had the other 3 wheels do the same. I was quoted $845 to replace all 4 chrome wheels with alumminium wheels and best to do that when need new tires. I am looking for a set of used alumminum wheels for it instead. Or get $1,000 less on a trade in for another 2 yr old used lincoln mkz. I have opted to trade it in and get a 2016' mkz. But with alum. Wheels.
