END OF VALVE STEM SHOT OUT OF STEM WHILE TRYING TO AIR UP TIRE, END CORRODED AND BROKE, REPLACED STEM AND SENSOR UNIT. SEEMS THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE METAL TYPES THAT ARE PUT ON AND INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY ON THESE MODELS CARS. EVEN SERVICE STATION (FIRESTONE) SAID THEY HAVE COLLECTION OF BAD STEMS ON THESE VEHICLES. I GOT LUCKY THAT I NOTICED AIR PRESSURE INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ON AN TOOK IT TO STATION TO AIR UP TIRE WHEN I TRIED TO PUT AIR IN TIRE AND END SHOT OUT LIKE A ROCKET AND THEN I LOST ALL THE AIR IN MY TIRE. WHAT HAS TO BE DONE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF BY THE MANUFACTURER WHEN THESE ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE. DOES SOME ONE HAVE TO BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD GET IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE STEM BLOWS OUT AND THEY GET A FLAT OR BLOW A TIRE. MY CAR WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIRE PUMP AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED, I CALLED ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE TO REMOVE MY TIRE BUT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO OTHERWISE.
