[QUOTE="Blinkwow74, post: 16244613, member: 150930"] So I picked my car up last Friday...5 July. Parked my car in the garage then on Tuesday morning I started my car and was alerted my left rear tire was at 15 psi... of course I was like wtf.. so I checked the tire and couldn’t find a puncture anywhere. I called My dealership and they said there was nothing they could do because they won’t touch a carbon fiber rim ???? So they said you probably punctured it some time after you left the dealership... we recommend you take it to a specialty rim shop.... so i took it to this place called RimTyme and they pulled the wheel off and couldn’t find anything wrong, until they sprayed some windex on the tire stem.... it started to bubble up at the base of it. They said they didn’t want to mess with the tire stem because they didn’t have a replacement tire stem and worried they might damage the carbon fiber rim. So took it back to my dealership and they again said we can’t help you please take it to this other ford dealership. Took it there and they said they think the rim needs to be replaced and they emailed ford warranty. They notified them that the dealership that received the vehicle needs to be the one that deals with this issue because it should have been discovered during the delivery inspection.... So told my dealership this and they said sorry we can’t do anything for you. WTF!!!! $72k for a car.... why the f would I do anything to the tire stem what would I gain.... this is obviously a warranty issue... am I wrong? There is not a single scratch or rock chip on this rim so I’m not sure what the problem is with them fixing this... [/QUOTE]
