So washed and waxed my car this morning then washed the wheels. Got to the 4th 1 and found that it is starting to bubble on the insider of the rim. No other damage anywhere near it just starting to bubble!! Not very happy. Always washed them with just water and triplewax shampoo.

Wheels are only 4 years old. never been kerbed no chips.

Is it worth going to the Merc dealer and showing them??

I suspect only if you fancy a trip out for the sake of it.

A pic would help - are they diamond cut?
 
As far as I know the anti rust warranty does not cover alloy wheels.

But if the car is under 4 years old and was serviced at an MB delear then you might get some joy from MB's 4th-year Goodwill warranty - worth a shot.

I am at work at the mo so will try and post a picture tomorrow.
