Replacement snap-in rubber valve stems sold between November 2006 and July 2007 are being recalled because the stems do not contain the correct additive to protect the rubber against deterioration from ozone exposure. Models APC TR413, TR414, and TR418 are among the recalls from the Dill Air Control Products Company. The stems may weather and crack when exposed to high levels of ozone which could progress to the point that the tire begins to lose pressure. A flat tire can lead to loss of vehicle control which could lead to an accident. If you purchased these replacement stems for your tires contact Dill and they will replace the effected valve stems at no charge.
