I bought this 2016 certified pre-owned 200C in December 2018. Since that time the front left rim has cracked twice and the dealership (Kelly in Lynnfield, MA) will not admit that there is an issue with ruggedness, durability or manufacturing. I'm not sure what caused the first one but the second issue happened while parking, the tire and wheel went into a pot hole that was filled with water and then backed out traveling literally 2 mph. While I figured there may be a scrape on the outside I couldn't imagine that the force necessary could crack the "alloy" rim. The quality and durability of these "alloy wheels" are a big issue and the dealership is satisfied to continue blaming the customer.
