Consumer Description

WE WERE ON A HIGHWAY GOING SPEED LIMIT OF 70 MPH AND OUR TRUCK NOTIFICATION SAID LOW TIRE PRESSURE. WE PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AND THE TIRES LOOKED OK. WE PULLED BACK OUT AND WENT LESS THAN HALF A MILE AND THE TIRE WENT COMPLETELY FLAT. THE VALVE STEM COVER NUT HAD SPILT AND BROKE OFF. THE WHOLE PIECE FELL INSIDE THE TIRE, CAUSING IT TO GO FLAT. WE HAD THE TIRE LOOKED AT AND THE VALVE STEM COVER NUTS AND STEM THREADS ARE ALL CORRODED. WE PUT THE SPARE TIRE ON AND THEN AGAIN TODAY (APRIL 25, 2014) IT SAID LOW TIRE PRESSURE AGAIN. ONCE AGAIN A VALVE STEM COVER NUT SPLIT AND BROKE OFF DUE TO CORROSION. WE DON'T HAVE ANOTHER SPARE AND WE WERE QUOTED A PRICE OF $75 TO $90 TO REPLACE EACH OF THE VALVE STEM PIECES. THE OTHER TWO TIRES ON THE TRUCK HAVE SPLITS IN THE VALVE STEM COVER NUTS AND ALL HAVE CORROSION TOO. SO NOW I'VE GOTTA REPLACE THESE ON ALL FOUR TIRES AND REPLACE ONE WHOLE TIRE.. *TR
