Description of the problem	Had a flat tire going down the highway. Didn't think much about it... It happens. Got a couple of new tires put on and a few months later it happens again. Ruining the $250 tire again. My mechanic says the chrome is peeling off my rims and that is what is causing me to lose air pressure in the tire,and that i should replace the rims. They are about $550 a piece so thats not going to happen. These cars that have low profile tires need to have tire pressure monitoring systems because you can't look at the tire and tell its low. If ford doesn't feel this is a safety issue they are wrong. I work at a ford dealership and i see stupid recalls for things that might happen one time in a thousand. But i bet this is happening to all the zephyr,fusions,milans, or anything they are putting these junk rims on.
