| First event low tire warning took to dealer, dealer stated it was a valve stem failure. dealer replaced under waranty. secound event low tire pressure warning came on, wife tried to check tire pressure with hand held tire gauge stem broke off went flat suddenly, third event repeat of same tire valve stem snapped off while driving, and pulling a trailer. dealer stated they could not put a standard valve stem on the car because the factory one is considered a safety device. 35 years of driving and a pis poor safety device nearly gets me killed, vehicle is a 2009 pontiac torrent with under 50,000 miles. also persistant problem of loosing tire pressure. i've never had a car that required daily tire pressure checks typicly a daily visual and onece a week is pressure test is adequate, but not this lemon. | |||
