I own a 2008 Chrysler Town & Country touring van which was purchased in sept of 2008. I have 10,000 miles on the van, and had put on 1300 miles during this trip. While traveling through the rolling hills of wyoming, I stopped at a scenic overlook. The 6 passengers got out of the car and the right front tire deflated in a matter of seconds. After inspecting the tire, we noticed the cap was not on the valve stem. In fact the inner workings of the stem were gone. The repairman confirmed our suspicion and replaced the valve stem. We are in possession of the defective valve stem. Had we been moving at the time of the incident, there could have been a fatal accident. We are concerned that the remaining valve stems may also have a defect.

Tire pressure sensor monitor began flashing a message in March, 2008 that tire pressure was low. Mechanic checked and tires were fine. Had a flat tire (puncture) later that month and when I took car in, mechanic suggested replacing all four tires as they were the original tires on the vehicle and had 65,000 miles on them. When they went to replace the tires, had an additional expense of $300. 00 because the tire pressure sensors had seized and could not be removed! three had to be replaced! only one was removable. Upon a call to the dealer was told that this sometimes happens because people put air in their tires at unknown locations and they can introduce moisture in the system. I do not put air in my tires - the mechanic does this for me - with very specialized equipment that does not produce moisture. The tire pressure system has been defective from day one - I have had to take to the dealer twice to have it reset because when the temperature drops in the winter (below 10 degrees) the monitors go off telling me I have low tire pressure.
