Two problems related to tire valve have been reported for the 2006 Jeep Commander. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Jeep Commander. The contact stated that while putting air in his tire, a local mechanic noticed that there was a valve defect in three (passenger rear and front and driver front) of the tires. The brand of the tire was a goodyear fortera hl. The dot#: m68tf4dr 3109. Tire size: 245/65r/17. The failure was not repaired. The dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 50,000 and the current mileage was 79,000. Nw.
On my 2006 Jeep Commander I have defective corroded tire valve stems which are now cracked and cause the tire to constantly lose air pressure causing an unsafe driving condition. Chrysler is aware of the problem but refuses to replace the defective parts. The problem I am told is due to the aluminum valve stem being corroded by the metal valve stem cap. All is original factory parts. I am afraid if the valve stem completely fails and the tire goes flat while driving it may cause an accident resulting in serious injury or death.
