Consumer Description

EARLY A.M. WENT TO CAR NOTICED TIRE COMPLETELY FLAT DUE TO 'CRACKED/DEFECTIVE' VALVE STEM. HAD PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES 2/8/07 FROM SAM'S CLUB. THEY REPLACED VALVE STEM BUT DID NOT MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT A RECALL AND DID NOT CHECK OTHER VALVE STEMS FOR DEFECTS. I WAS NOT AWARE OF RECALL UNTIL HEARING IT ON THE NEWS THIS WEEK. NOW CONCERNED ABOUT OTHER TIRES AND IF THE 'NEW REPLACEMENT VALVE IS SAFE. *TR
