Stealer Told Me Three Cracked Alloys! Help!!

KAL M4 · 12-23-2009, 11:07 AM

Hi my 335 is at the stealer getting some warranty work done...

As they have to do a health check they have come back and told me i have three cracked alloys and would cost me around £350 each to replace!!!

I have done some research and found that its been a common problem, and they have been on watch dog recently for this, as far as i know they are blaiming the uk pot holes for the problem and not covering the wheels by warranty.

I just want to know if anyone has managed to get these covered by warranty or find a good repair solution??

All your help will be welcome!

Thanks

Please add it to the Cracked Wheel Statistics Collection thread. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to give you some advice on what to say to the dealership.

Before you give BMW your money look in the classified on here you will pick up a mint set with tyres for less than the £350 each plus vat the dealer quoted ,Then keep your old ones a chase BMW for compensation
