I AM EXPERIENCING A FAILURE IN THE FACTORY WHEELS ON MY 2009 FORD F250. THE CRACKS ARE VERY LARGE, LIKE A SEPARATION IN THE ALLOY, THEY ARE NOT FROM THE EDGES AS MOST CRACKS ARE, AND MEASURE APPROXIMATELY 4-5 INCHES. THIS IS MY THIRD FAILURE IN LESS THAN 1 YEAR. ALL ARE ALMOST IDENTICAL, ALL HAVE HAPPENED ON THE FRONT, AND HAVE HAD NO SIGNS OF IMPACT. IT IS MY STRONG OPINION THAT THIS PARTICULAR WHEEL HAS NOT BEEN ENGINEERED CORRECTLY FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE FRONT END. THIS HAS PUT ME IN A HUGE SAFETY RISK AND I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY FROM THE MANUFACTURER. PLEASE ALLOW ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEND SOME PICTURES. THE FIRST RIM I RETURNED FOR THE CORE CREDIT. I HAVE THE SECOND RIM IN MY POSSESSION, AND IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP WITH THE 3RD CRACK. *TR
