Tire valve stems are failing prematurely. Dealer notified.
All four tires were flat and wire was sticking out from the sidewall. The driver had the vehicle towed to the dealer for an analysis and they replaced all of the tires due to broken valve stems. The second tire failure showed signs of extreme center tire wear. The consumer also stated the rim was not compatible for the vehicle.
Snap in type tire valve stems on wheels leaks air. The consumer received a recall notice regarding the tire valves, however the consumer had already replaced the valve at his/her expense. This could cause a loss of tire pressure and lead to a rupture of the tire and could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
