| Description of the problem | I own a toyota sienna minivan and have experienced the paint on all four rims bubbling and peeling. It is a 2005 sienna xle awd. Toyota's resolution was to offer me two rims for "free" if i bought two at over $900. I was still well within warranty. If you go to http://www. Nuckleslaw. Com/software-negotiations-expert/toyota-alloy-wheels-bubbling-toyota-quality-concerns/ you will find multiple postings and pictures of this problem, which includes lexus. I paid $500 to have my rims refinished. Toyota corporate in california would not address this issue when i called them. From a safety standpoint, i have to think that at some point this decay of aluminum rims would go far enough that it may cause tires to slowly lose air. |
