Wheels on this vehicle are aluminum alloy with steel valve stems. Because these are two different metals they are causing a corrosion problem which in turn is causing the tires to lose air pressure.

I have read of multiple complaints of this same problem on the internet…

Drw aluminum wheels have a corrosion failure where the tpms stem makes contact with the rim. This causes air leaks at the stem.

Cast aluminum wheels leaking air from area around steel valve stem where corrosion is occurring. All have been replaced once and one was replaced twice. Vehicle has 29k miles. The air loss has been both slow and quick. This is dangerous as i pull a 13,000 pound trailer. Dealers are aware of many cases. Ford will not replace wheels with a safe product and continues to replace with the same defective wheel and valve.

The tire valve stems leak. I have replaced 8 valve stems and i have owned my trust approximately 1 year. In some instances the leak rate was very significant, requiring frequent stops to re-inflate the tires. Ford has not addressed the problem - the company simply replaces the valve stems and leaks resume within 2-3 months. This was a major safety issue recently when we were towing a large load in the mountains of…
