Looking for opinions on factory wheels

[metallica5711]

Hey semi new to the forum, I have been lurking for a while and thought I should finally say hi, seems like there are a lot of knowledgeable members on here.

So I was looking for fellow ram owners opinions on what i believe to be a manufacturer defect on my 2016 1500 black edition sport wheels. I may be being to picky but it looks to me like the paint is too thin and there is silver showing through. What does everyone else think?

Talking about the center pieces of the spoke in the creases/corners?

Yes exactly, its hard to see in the pictures but in between the "white" lines on the center of the spokes its also thin. It almost looks metallic with the silver showing through.

Yeah that's odd. Have you taken it to your dealer yet?

Yes i took it in 2 weeks ago they just got back to me today to tell me that the photo verification warranty or whatever they call it told the dealer that it is not a manufacturer defect. So I called the chrysler customer satisfaction number that I have and they are going to look into it and see if they can do anything about it, but "most times it is denied through photos it isn't overturned" or so I was told.

Ask RamCares on the forum, see if she can help you.

Effing chrysler would be sending in new wheels for me if I just dropped 30k plus on a new truck. Bumper to bumper warranty dammit

I would be fine if they just repainted them. I talked to the ram customer service guy today he said they are optimistic that it will be resolved but he can't make any promises.
