Consumer Description
DRIVING ON NY STATE THRUWAY AT 1 AM FRIDAY NIGHT AND TIRE SENSOR LIGHT WENT ON BUT NO INDICATION ANYTHING OTHER THAN LOW TIRE PRESSURE. SOON AFTER THE CAR MAKES NOISE WE PULL OVER TO SAFE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SEE THE TIRE IS FLAT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT AND NO CRASH. BROUGHT CAR TO MONRO AS BEFORE WHEN THIS HAPPENED BEFORE. CAN CHECK WITH THEM WHEN. SO THE TENSOR BROKE OFF AS BEFORE AND WENT INTO THE TIRE. SHREDDED THE TIRE ON THE INSIDE AS BEFORE. I HAVE TO GET A NEW TIRE AGAIN AND NEW SENSOR. WILL COST ME A LOT OF MONEY FOR INFERIOR DESIGN AND MATERIALS FOR THE SENSOR. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND STRONGER MATERIAL SHOULD BE USED. ALSO A NEW DESIGN FEATURE LIKE SUBARU TO HAVE A FLASHING LIGHT IF THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE OTHER THAN JUST LOW TIRE PRESSURE. THE DODGE JUST HAS A STAY ON LIGHT WARNING. SO HAVE TO PAY FOR NEW SENSOR NEW TIRE AND HAD TO PAY FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. CALLED DODGE AND FOUND OUT THERE HAVE BEEN MANY REPORTS OF THIS ALREADY. THE WOMAN KIM, WILL REPORT THIS TO DODGE.
