did anyone else get the rim Warranty when they bought htere car or know what it covers because i have 3 of my 4 rims the paint is chiping off of them?

 

look at the apperance section, theres a huge thread on it.
all rims have 3 year 36k warrenty on them, im in the process of gettin my either repalced or refinished.

 

yea well i spent 500 $ on the damn rim warreny so they better nto give me a hassel when i bring it in for all 3 rims!

they were flaking and i did not even have them on in the winter...

 

i didnt spend a thing????
what exactly did you buy....exteneded rim warrenty??

 

it covers stone chips color fading and if the rim get fcuked up because of a put hole they will replace it so im pretty sure they have to repalce my 3 rims if i have this warrenty...

 

so i gues sin the end that 500 $ is going to pay it self off if gm is true to this rim warrenty... i will keep you guys posted once i have time to bring it in

 

what happened to me is, the dsm came to look at them and said there not taht bad, were not gonna do anything about it, i was so pissed, 2 days later a big chunk flaked off right at the lip of the rim, i have an appt wed, i may tell him what i think of him lol....moron, i even brought pics of defected ims and all the info and hes till denied me, well not this time or im gonna blow.

 

Hey Im in the process of leasing out a 2006 cobalt ss/sc black / red inserts ( pumped! ) but i'm curious about how this turns out. Wanna know if its worth the extra 500 or so. Thanks and good luck!

 

Rim warranty??? **** that, if it chips they repair it, simple as that! I am in the process of getting a rim refinished, the dealer sends it out to a sub contractor in Windsor that does the refinishing for GM. This is the third attempt at refinishing this wheel as it came back worse each time and if it fails one more time I'm going to demand a new rim

 

Your basic vehicle warranty covers the rims. Unless you are the one who f@#ks them up!

I have no clue why you would pay extra for something already included in the bumper-to-bumper warranty. You got owned pal.

 

my car has 960 miles today and i saw them chipping at 400 miles so imma go there tommorow and its all my rims its like chips but i want em fu@#ing replaced

 

i did nto get owned its something totaly different it was my dads buddie who said to take it so i dont think he would of fucked us i just cant rember what it covers to the T but i will find otu and post it

 

fck that man demand one NOW.... and if theyput up a fight call coustmer service and ask to speek to someone higher up.... thsi will work did for my dad and his rim problem on his vette

 

I don't really want to demand too strongly with my dealer as it s my bud's dealership and they turn a blind eye and warranty alot of things that are shall we say, questionable like my old car that had full suspension and had blown strut mounts

 

My Cobalt ss/sc just went in for the rims to be refinshed. All four of my rims were chipped and stained. Has anyone gotten their rims repalced? Also its in for the nasty hesitation in 1st and 2nd gear, has anyone found what the cause of this is? Im completely stock as for now.

 

someone just took their 06 SS/SC wheels back for scratches and after showing the dealerships the threads on the site about the finish on the wheels the dealership gave him new 07 polished wheels

 

they never replaced my rims they sent them out 2 times befor they came back GOOD...there not perfect but my dealer told me to leave it till they get worse again then call gm and see what happens..

 

Well that may be what I have to do, but they did send them out to be refinished, and I guess i'll have to wait and see the finish job. do we know which member it was that got the new 07 rims? Thanks

 

All 4 of mine were sent out under warranty to be re-finished a few months back . All 4 of mine came back the same shade as OEM , and unlike the OEM wheels , they were as glossy as the paint on the car . I was really impressed . So far the re-finishing has held up perfectly .

Good luck with yall's wheels .

 

I got the same friggin problem, but they look like rock chips on one wheel. I know they arent but how do you explain that to a dealer. I had 18s on my cavalier for 4 years and never once got any dings whatsoever. What should I do?

 

ummmmm take it back and show them....as long as the service writer isn't following you out tapping a stick in front of him he should be able to see the marks...UMMM DUH!!!!

 

I must have one hell of an awsome dealer

I didn't even have to say a thing to the service manager about my rims.

We were just bullshitting after my tire rotation he noticed my chipping rims and we order brand new 2007 polished rims.
