Bent wheels V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be wheel trouble on  Tue Dec 24 05:10 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I have standard alloy rims (Antila) for my 2000 V70.

I had an annoying vibration that would not go away with a wheel balancing. The dealer says two are bent.

I do not drive roughly and have not hit any big potholes, etc.

Should these be covered by the warranty?

    Mag wheels are easily bent from the slightest of potholes and in some areas, they're hard to avoid. No auto or wheel manufacturer warranty's wheels or tires from road hazards.

    If you bought the car new in 2000 I dont think they would be covered......they will say "why didnt you tell us about this the day after you brought the car home".
    If you bought the cau used....not covered.
    If you look in your warranty info, you will see that wheels/tires are not covered.
