I HAVE A 2008 JEEP PATRIOT. THE MAIN CONCERN I HAVE IS THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING VALVE IS DEFECTIVE. THE MAIN VALVE STEM IS MADE OUT OF ALUMINUM AND THEY ARE SNAPPING IN HALF RIGHT BELOW WHERE THE VALVE SCREWS IN ON THE STEM. THIS CAUSES A SUDDEN DECREASE OF AIR PRESSURE THAT WE ALMOST LOST THE CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION BY THE TIRE STORE WE HAVE ANOTHER TIRE STEM THAT IS READY TO BREAK ALSO. THE VALVE STEMS USED TO BE MADE OUT OF BRASS OR STEEL. AND IN THE COLORADO WEATHER WITH THE SEVERE COLD I THINK IT IS CRACKING THE ALUMINUM STEMS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT BUT SHOULDN'T BE TOO COSTLY TO REPAIR. IF NOT RECALLED THERE WILL BE ROLLOVERS AS THE TIRE PRESSURE GOES OUT VERY QUICKLY. I DO HAVE KNOWLEDGEABLE SKILLS IN THE MECHANICAL AREAS SO I KNOW THIS IS NOT SAFE. *TR
