The wheels on my 2007 Edge are starting to show signs of corrosion. I have the chrome-cladded wheel options. The corrosion is NOT on the chromed plastic, but rather on the edge of the wheel itself. I am guessing that the part of the wheel which is corroding is aluminum. I appears that the corrosion is underneath some sort of clear coating and has "worked its way" underneath this coating.
I only have 18k miles on the vehicle and it is not even 1 year old. While I have seen this type of corrosion on aluminum wheels before, it was not within the first year. More like 5 - 7 years and even then, not to this extent.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? I would assume that this is covered as a warranty item?
