P245/60r18 unknown I was driving through residential parking lot and my tire begin to go flat. Before I could even pull over and park, I had to swerve to keep from hitting other vehicles in the lot. Not sure why the tire went flat, but this incident was scary.

2012 Ford Edge. Consumer writes in regards to rear brake problems and several other vehicle issues. The door ajar light sensor was inoperative and the inside lights would not go off. Also, the vehicle made a loud electrical humming noise and would shut off. The sound would last anywhere from 10-30 minutes, the radio would not turn off and the remote start would only work in the afternoon. Also,the low tire pressure light illuminated.

Faulty vehicle tpms syttems. They become brittle and when you try to check the air in the tire they can break. The materials used are very cheap and are unsafe. If you break one or crack one you loose all the air in the tire. As a automotive lubrication center owner it falls upon my store to fix a problem that is definately a design problem from the vehicle manuafacturer.

My 2008 Ford Edge has tire pressure monitors which indicates my tire pressure is dangerously low when I change rims and tires to my snow tires twice a year. When I purchased the tires from les schwab tires I was assured that they where able to reset this system if necessary. Apparently this is not the case and the system must be reset by a Ford service. Last year Ford reset the system which takes about one minute, when I brought my car in for 5000 mile service. . This year I was told by lake city Ford in coeur d alene, id when I brought my car in for service that there is a $24. 95 charge to reset the tpm's. Knowing human nature it is my belief that if the consuming public has to pay $25 twice a year to reset the system the advantage of having tpm will not be of any benefit since most people will simply not have the system reset and ignore dash board warnings of potential tire failure. This is not in the best interest of public safety and potentially very dangerous. A safety system so important and a one minute reset process to reset it does not seem logical to discourage it's benefits by changing $24. 95.

The contact owns a 2007 Ford Edge. The contact stated that the tire pressure sensor disintegrated inside the right rear tire which caused the tire to be off balance. The remaining three tires have not been affected. The dealer stated that the tires are not covered by the warranty and they would have to pay out of pocket for the repairs. The failure mileage was 40,000.

While traveling on I-35 the left front tire suddenly lost air pressure at highway speeds. Upon inspection of tire, no damage other than what was inflicted from the event of traveling at 70mph while flat was found. The problem was that the valve stem failed. It was cracked at the base allowing a sudden loss of tire pressure. The other valve stems on the car are also cracked at the base but not completely failed yet.

Tire pressure sensor light came on dashboard. Pulled off highway and tire was almost completely flat instantly. Found that the left front valve stem was cracked and faulty. As of 7/7/2009; all four valve stems have gone bad and been replaced.

Valve stems were leaking. . Continually. . Replaced all five of them.

I purchased a 2007 Ford Edge sel plus, and 6 months later I kept getting a low pressure message. I would refill the tire and a day later it was low. I took it in to the dealer and the valve stem was broken, as well as 3 other cracked valve stems. They replaced them all but charged me a discounted rate of $65 for the labor. Ford refused to cover it, and I had very low miles on the car. This was frightening, knowing this was the problem with the explorer in the 1990's.

While driving my 2007 Ford Edge it displays "tire pressure sensor fault". This occurs generally during highway driving. When I took it to the dealer for repair, I was told that they couldn't figure out why the message was displayed. It has not been fixed. It would seem to me that this highly touted safety feature should work.
