| Component | TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYST |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The tpms on my 2009 jeep patriot indicated low tire pressure. When i took the cap off one tire to check the pressure, about 1/8 inch of the end of the valve stem was inside the cap. I could not check the tire pressure or add air. This is a safety issue. If the valve stem breaks while driving, it could result in quick loss of tire pressure. The jeep dealer will replace the vavle stem/tire pressure monitor unit for $115. I will save the old part. *kb |
