Valve stem (inflation valve) ruptured and caused tire to deflate. This was the second valve stem to rupture on this truck. The valve stem is available for inspection. The valve stem from the first incident is not available.
: the contact stated while turning into the driveway, a popping noise was heard and the inside rear passenger tire was flat. The vehicle was driven to an independent repair shop who determined the valve stems on the tires were faulty and needed to be replaced. The tire size was LT2158516, manufactured by general tire & rubber co.
Valve stem on tire broke, immediate loss of air, it was an inside dually tire which saved me from getting in a wreck. If it would have been a front tire I would have lost control, at the time I was going 50 mph. Could have been fatal.
