| Description of the problem | Tire air valves are metal and split causing a blowout on i-57 at 65 mph. And as of today 09/03/2016 i have noticed the tires (all 4) are starting to loose air and 3 out of 4 valve stems are cracked causing the air to rush out of the tire as the crack gets worse ,this is very much a safety hazard. At this point i have no way to scan in the paperwork from the repair shop, but i do have it. |
