NHTSA Complaint #10531519 — 2010 MAZDA MAZDA3

ONLY OWNER OF A 2010 MAZDA 3. ISSUES WITH CAR SINCE PURCHASING. REPLACED TIRES IN WINTER OF 2012, FEW WEEKS LATER TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. FILLED TIRES WITH AIR. FEW WEEKS LATER, SAME OCCURRENCE. BROUGHT CAR TO THE PLACE WERE THE TIRES WERE PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED. THE INSPECTED OVER ALL 4 TIRES AND FOUND THAT 2 OF THE 4 TIRE STEMS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. CALLED MAZDA CORP AND THEY STATED THE CAR NEEDED TO GO TO A DEALERSHIP TO BE DIAGNOSED. ( FOR LEAKING TIRE STEMS ). CALLED MY LOCAL MAZDA WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED, THEY WERE GREAT AND SAID THEY WOULDN'T CHARGE A FEE TO DIAGNOSE LEAKING STEMS AS IT WAS OBVIOUS. THEY DID FIND THAT 2 OF THE 4 WERE BROKEN. 1 WAS ACTUALLY SNAPPED IN HALF. NO DRIVER ERROR NOTED, OR DAMAGE TO RIM. IF YOU GOOGLE THIS ISSUE THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS OUT THERE REGARDING THIS, BUT MAZDA STILL WONT RECOGNIZE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE. MY QUESTION BEING... WHAT IF THE STEMS FAILED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ???? *TR
