“Driving down the expressway and low tire light came on, lost all air in front passenger tire. When I looked the air valve was missing, checked other wheels and found alloy lug nuts( tire pressure moniters) were all cracked and falling off. Had towed to clio randy wise chrysler. Replaced all 4 sensors and a tire $700 repair ! Although it is a 2009 I only have 25,000 miles on it. I'm very upset about paying for this repair ! I made calls only to be told sorry ! I see there are recalls on these just not for my vehicle.”

“2009 Dodge nitro - tpm valve stems corrosion at valve stem retaining nut: when retaining nut fails, falls off, it then chews up the inside of the tire, and the valve stem blows out tire while driving - tire goes flat so fast operator must stop before wheel is damaged and now we find out from the dealer that all 4 tires have to be replaced on 4x4 vehicles or it will lead to transfer case (transmission) issues down the road. You cannot just replace the damaged tire. …”
