| Description of the problem | April 12th i had the oil change in my 2009 dodge caravan at valvoline. As i was driving home my low light indicator came on. I checked the air pressure and they were all fine. I am in sales and do a great deal of travel in this caravan in the minneapolis area. I could feel the van pulling harder and harder to the right. When i pull in to the parking lot, the right front tire was low. The air valve blow out and complete deflated the tire. If i would have been driving, who knows what could have happened. I got the tire changed and brought the car to goodyear. I was telling me co worker about this and she has had the same thing happen to her 2009. |
