| Description of the problem | After driving a short distance and parking, i returned to find one tire flat. I changed the tire and returned home. The following morning i checked the damaged tire and found the valve stem missing. I drove to a service center and had the tire removed. The stem (with speed sensor attached) was loose inside the tire. We checked the remaining three wheels and found all wheels had badly corroded stem nuts, and that one of the nuts was cracked into three pieces. Removing all stem nuts damaged the sensors and all had to be replaced. The "new" parts are all of the same materials as the original items, thus i will have to replace the sensors, stems, and stem nuts every 2-3 years unless a fix is initiated. |
