NHTSA Campaign ID Number: 08T028

Synopsis:
This email is being sent to advise you that Dill Air Control Products (Dill) 
is recalling certain replacement snap-in rubber valve stems, Models Dill APC 
TR413, TR414, and TR418, sold between November 2006 and July 2007. These 
valves may lack the required additive to protect the rubber against 
deterioration from ozone exposure. As a result, affected valve stems, when 
subject to high levels of ozone, may weather and crack earlier than normal 
for this product. Over time, such a crack could progress to the point that 
it leaks air resulting in a loss of tire pressure. Loss of tire pressure can 
result in a flat tire and/or loss of vehicle control, which could cause a 
crash without warning. Dill will notify owners and replace the affected 
valve stems free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 9, 
2008. Owners may contact Dill toll-free at 1-888-364-2982 or visit
