I've got a 2 year old 300c, when I bought it from the main dealers (Marshalls Peterborough) last year they said, "as it was still in warranty they would get the corroded alloy wheels changed under warranty".This was approved by Chrysler in January but I'm Still waiting. At first they said that they where waiting for new wheels. The lastest is that Fiat are having the wheels refurbished and mine are on a waiting list.

Anyone else had this problem ?

Standard on them.

Originally they were all being replaced but a while ago the swapped over to supplying re-furbished ones instead. These actually last better than the originals.

There's a lot of wheels that need sorting so there probaly is a bit of a wait.

I remember how GM used to replace all the flaking chrome wheels on the Camaros. Ah, happy days....

I had asked if I could upgrade to the SRT setup and pay the difference but they are not interested. Its just a case of how long it takes me to get fed up with the grotty looking wheels before I buy a new set...Which will probably be before they refurbish these.

Anyone want a set of refurbished wheels when them come??
