Consumer Description

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. THE CHRYSLER/JEEP DEALER HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS AND IN FACT AT MY LAST SERVICE WHICH INCLUDED AN ANNUAL SAFETY INSPECTION DID NOT WANT TO PASS THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THE SITUATION WAS TO DANGEROUS BUT STILL REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE VALVE STEMS. *TR
