MY VEHICLE HAD 9,000 MILES ON IT AND IS DRIVEN IN MODERATION. ONE OF THE RIMS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS CRACKED - THE OTHER 3 ARE BENT. WITHIN 1,500 MILE, I HAVE LEARNED THAT THE REPLACED RIM IS NOW ALSO BENT. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE VEHICLE'S SAFTEY WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS - THE CAR SHAKES. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO REPLACE THE WHEELS STATING NO DEFECTS OR RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED.

This year I have had two rims crack on my tires. 1 Front and 1 rear. This was not from a impact or pothole they just cracked. I belove this is a manufacturing defect on the AMG CLS-63S rims and should the break apart on the highway this could be a potential safety issue. Should it had only been 1 rim I could see it being a non-issue, but now another one with a car that only has 40,000 miles on it. This is deeply concerning.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
