 Description of the problemI read an article in the september 2008 consumers reports magazine which described a recall for manufacturer : tech international, nhtsa campaign id number : 08t018000 , for defective tire valves. I had a problem with a defective tire valve recently on my 2007 ford mustang, and now wonder if ford isn't using this same manufacturer of tire valves in their new cars. More details of my incident follow... 1) i was driving at approx. 55 mph on two lane road on a hot (90+) summer day (6/8/08). The low pressure warning light came on, and i pulled over asap to investigate. 2) the driver side rear tire was low. I pumped air into the tire, and noticed the valve stem was cracked at the base where it installs in the alloy rim. It would not hold pressure, so i installed the spare, and drove to a nearby sears to repair the valve stem. 3) i paid $26 for a "flat repair" - basically they replaced the tire valve. I do not have the old part. The good news is the tire pressure sensor technology saved me from having a high speed flat. I expected to find a nail in my tire, not a faulty valve stem. I have not contacted my local ford dealer at this time. I purchased the car new from ford in april 2007. It is a 2007 ford mustang v6, 4. 0l sohc, with approx. 10k miles. The tires are pirelli pzero nero p235/ mounted on alloy wheels.
