  1. I have a 2009 RT and I have had to replace two of the valve stems in the past 4 months. Both times the valve stem has broken off in the same spot. The first time the tire dealer said I must have hit something on the road, but I did not think so because there were no scratches or damage to the hub cap. When it happened the second time, I was washing my care and was drying of the hub cap with a towel and wiped the towel across the valve stem and it just snapped off. It cost about 55 bucks to replace so I am thinking about just letting the yellow light glow, both times the tire has gong flat I did not need the yellow light to tell what had just happen, I know the tire went flat. I do not need a yellow light to tell me that the tire is flat, I needed it to tell me that the valve stem was cracked and just about ready to blow out on me, but it did not, so I do not see the value in having it. I wish dodge or whoever would make some TPMS valve stems made out of rubber available for us. I will put a new valve back in, but if any of the new one's break again, I will not be replacing them.
