I just had the valve stems replaced (due to cracking) on my Jeep. They were coded as TR413 (obviously the same dill number covered in the recall. However, these tires and valve stems were installed on my car in December of 2005 - clearly not manufactured during the August-December 2006 time frame of the recall. This raises the question about the dill/chinese valve stem problem being much larger than has been claimed. I am a retired former rubber chemist, and have run hundreds of ozone resistance tests on rubber compounds, so I am fairly familiar with what to look for. NHTSA should expand its investigation of this problem. I kept the old valve stems which were removed, and will make them available upon request.

2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The consumer stated driver's side rear tire sidewall disintegrated. There is only 31,000 miles on the vehicle. The rest of the tires were weather rotted. These tires have never been repaired. They were the original tires on the vehicle. Goodyear, P255/75R16. The tire was taken to the dealership. Instead, it should have been taken to Goodyear. There was no wreck when this happened. The tires were properly maintained. It is a leased vehicle.
