Consumer Description

WENT TO CHECK MY TIRE PRESSURES AND TOOK VALVE STEM COVER OFF AND IT SNAPPED THE TOP OF THE VALVE STEM OFF EVEN WITH THE TOP OF THE VALVE STEM....2 OTHER VALVE STEM COVERS ARE ALSO SEIZED ON THE VALVE STEMS ON THE TRUCK.. CALLED DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT DODGE KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE REPLACED HUNDREDS OF THEM AND THE ONLY WAY TO REPLACE THEM IS TO PUT ANOTHER SENSOR IN FOR 75 BUCKS CAUSE THEY CAN NOT PUT REGULAR VALVE STEMS IN VEHICLES THAT HAVE TPMS SENSORS IN THEM...THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY RECALLS TO DATE NOR COULD I FIND ANY ONLINE...THIS IS A OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH MANY DODGE VEHICLES WITH THIS METAL VALVE STEM AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. *TR
