What can fail
Valve stems may have been pushed too far into the wheels during installation, tearing the rubber seal at the base. This causes air to leak out, leaving tires underinflated. Severely underinflated tires can develop sidewall zipper failures—sudden ruptures in the tire sidewall—during driving or inflation.
What the fix does
Valve stems will be inspected for leaks. If leakage is found, the valve stem and tire will be replaced.
