Description of the problem	A little over a year after i purchased my new 2005 toyota solara (bought on 3/05) from westbury toyota, westbury, ny the coating on the factory rims began to flake off. I called the dealership and was told by them this problem is not covered under warranty. As the situation became worse i called the dealership again to state this must be a defect in the rims and again i was told they were unaware of a problem with the rims and if there is its not covered under the warranty. Over the years i walked through parking lots i noticed other 2004-2006 solaras with the same wheel problem/defect. I finally called the toyota 800 # to complain and they said this is the first time they heard of this problem. I've spoken to other solara owners who also called the dealerships and the 800# and were told there were no other complaints or problems reported with the solara rims. Recently i called the 800# again and explained to them that now not only is the coating flaking off but also the unprotected rims are starting to corrode which i feel is dangerous. Again, i was told "this is the first time we heard there is a problem with the solara rims." i feel this is another cover up and eventually if the rims corrode any further is can be dangerous and cause an accident. There are still plenty of 2004-2006 solaras on the road and they all seem to have the same problem. The pre-2003 cars don't seem to have this problem as do the 2007 and later cars. I have been fighting with them over this matter for almost 9 years. Any help you can provide to have these rims replaced would be greatly appreciated. My car has only 67000 miles and i plan on keeping it for many years. Thank you.
