2008 Dodge GRAND CARAVAN Tires Pressure Monitoring And Regulating Syst Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	830954
Internal NHTSA #	10368692
Manufacurer	CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Brand	DODGE
Model	GRAND CARAVAN
Model Year	2008
File date	20/08/10
Component	TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYST
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The tire valve stem made of a single piece of aluminum corrodes at the base of the threads at the end of the plastic cap. This leads to the sudden release of air and can happen while driving orwhen handling the tire valve, e. G. When adding air to the tire. This has now happened to me twice, once while i was driving, and once soon after adding air to the tire. The tire was damaged in the first incident and had to be replaced. The second time i found the valve piece hanging inside the cap a week after i had added air to the tires. Upon continued inspection of these valve stems i have found another one that is cracked. I am an engineer and up till recently was in the automotive industry. The design of the valve and material selection or manufacturing is flawed. This vehicle is used by my wife to carry my kids and their friends. I will not replace this flawed design with another equally flawed replacement and have gone to using non-tpms valves that utilize a flexible rubber stem and threaded brass end. I am willing to go back to a tpms valve if the design is corrected. The best thing would be to have chrysler recall and repair the vehicle but it seems they are either waiting for a solution to fall form the sky or for nhtsa to force this on them. I have an old part that is available.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
