| Went to check air pressure in tires. while unscrewing the plastic valve stem cap on one of the front tires, the metal valve stem sheared off in my hand. the point of shearing was about mid way down the metal valve stem. the shearing occurred circumferentially in a smooth even plane. there is no evidence of mechanical/physical damage to the valve stem from hitting a curb, etc. i did not exert lateral pressure on the stem, i just twisted the plastic cap with my fingers. the stem was on a tire sensor unit with label schrader electronics with apparent part number 8cbffcb4. *tr | |||
