Lost tire pressure in one tire (right rear) in brand new vehicle after 100 miles driving due to improperly installed air valve with tire pressure monitor system sensor attached to tire air valve. Tire pressure monitor system alerted driver to a sudden loss of pressure. Driver was able to drive to a tire repair shop after changing to spare tire. Tire repair person found no leaks in tire, and upon dis-mounting the tire discovered the tire air valve was not properly seated. After properly installing the air valve and remounting the wheel on the vehicle, the tire had no further leakage until the end of the rental when we returned the vehicle to the rental Agency, at 2600 miles. Vehicle is a rental vehicle; one of many identical recently delivered to rental car Agency. Complainant was a renter, not the owner of the vehicle. The vehicle manual identifies the vehicle as a 2011 model year vehicle.
