UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS DRIVING MY 2009 DODGE RAM 1500 WITH MY FAMILY ON RT 280 EAST DOING ABOUT 65MPH WHEN TIRE VALVE/SENSOR POPPED OFF OF RIM AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF VEHCILE. THE NUT THAT HOLDS THE VALVE/SENSOR SEPERATED FROM EACH OTHER. THERE ARE PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET OF SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE. CALLED DODGE TO FILE A COMPLAINT SEVERAL WEEKS AGO AND NOTHING WAS DONE ! PAID $450. TO REPLACE ALL 4 VALVE/SENSOR JUST SO I CAN FEEL SAFE IN MY TRUCK. WHEN I LOOKED AT NEW VALVES THEY HAD BEEN REDESIGNED WITH A RUBBER STEM INSTEAD OF ALUMINUM THAT CORRODES. OBVIOUSLY THEY HAD PROBLEMS AND MODIFIED THEM WITHOUT CONTACTING VEHICLE OWNERS! THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL!

IGNITION WILL NOT CRANK. WE HAVE 2 KEYS FOR IT, NEITHER WORKS THE FIRST TIME. TAKES 10-30 MINUTES TO GET THE KEY TO TURN. I HAVE SEEN THERE ARE RECALLS FOR IGNITIONS FOR THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL AS OURS. OUR VIN DOES NOT COME UP AS HAVING THE RECALL.
