Description of the problem | Tire sensor light went on in our 2008 dodge caravan. Went to put air in tires and found 2 of the 4 valves stems broken off towards the end of the stem. The pieces were still there being held in place by the cap. We purchased this vehicle used in june 2009. These are the tpms stems. I went online and found that this is a very common problem. Why hasn't there been a recall on these type of stems? |
