WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR INDICATED A LOW LEFT REAR TIRE. I STOPPED AND ADDED THE NECESSARY AIR AND CONTINUED DRIVING. IN ABOUT 10 MILES THE MONITOR INDICATED THAT THE TIRE WAS LOW AGAIN. I STOPPED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO HAVE IT CHECKED. UPON INSPECTION I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRE WAS OK BUT THE WHEEL HAD A1 INCH HAIRLINE CRACK IN THE BEAD AREA ON THE INSIDE SIDE OF THE RIM. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL OR TIRE OR WHEEL. I FEEL THAT THIS WAS A DEFECTIVE WHEEL MADE IN CHINA. THIS WAS A GM ALUMINUM 20 INCH WHEEL. THIS DEFECTIVE COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I DON'T THINK THAT I CAN TAKE A PICTURE THAT WOULD SHOW THE CRACK.AS IT IS A HAIRLINE CRACK.

CAR HAS AUTOSTOP. WHILE WAITING ON LIGHT AND WHEN IT CHANGED CAR STALLED LIKE IT DID NOT WANT TO START UP. IT MADE THE NOISE LIKE SOMEONE TURNED THE KEY WITH THE CAR STILL ON, BUT THIS IS A KEYLESS IGNITION. IT HAS DIED THIS SEVERAL TIMES AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO BUICK DEALER AND THEY SAY NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, IT HAS DID IT TWICE MORE SINCE THEY CHECKED IT. LAST TIME I WAS AT A FOOD DRIVE THRU AND IT STALLED MADE NOISE THEN STARTED BACK UP. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. IT SEEMS LIKE THE AUTOSTOP GETS STUCK AND THEIR IS A DELAY STARTING BACK UP. THAT IS DANGEROUS WHEN TURNING AT A LIGHT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE . THANK YOU
