| Description of the problem | Valve stems ( that are metal and have a sensor) are corroding are literally snapping off. I've contacted jeep directly and customer service states that it's not covered under warranty and there is no recalls on this issue. I've replaced 3 valve stems in one week. My latest one happened today on an interstate that could have resulted in a horrible crash. I do have documentation of receipts that i can't upload at the moment that state "bad" valve stems. |
