Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) failure which almost resulted in a crash at high speed. Tpms air stem broke while driving. The TPMS then fell into the tire, leaving the air stem hole wide open, which resulted in rapid deflation of the tire. Operator of the vehicle was able to barely keep control of the vehicle and bring it safely to a stop; tire was completely destroyed - nothing but the wheel rim was left. Mechanic / recovery personnel with tow truck said it was a minor miracle that an accident/ crash was avoided. When reported to Volvo, no support or action taken on their part. …”
