Within 17 hours of each occurrence, two TPMS (tire pressure monitoring sensors) had broken from corrosion causing a sudden loss of air in the tire, resulting in a flat tire and dangerous highway driving situation. Both tires had adequate air before the incidents that had just been checked before the trip. The remaining two TPMS were also badly corroded when inspected and were replaced.

I am the second owner of this vehicle. Its a 2010. I went to the dealership to see why I was hearing noises when I drive and was advised the wheel bearings where loose. How is that possible" this vehicle is not even 5 years old. Per my reseach, these things at supposed to lose for the life of the vehicle. Its only been 5 years. How is this possible"

My husband was driving on the NJ turnpike and the tire pressure monitor light came on. Within a minute the rear passenger tire was completely flat. After inspected by a tire dealer, it was determined that the TPMS corroded and the nut came off while driving the car. The TPMS fell into the tire causing an immediate flat tire. Warranty did not cover the defective TPMS and Mazda does not have a safety recall on this part. The part was replaced with a new rubber TPMS.[original made of metal] this is an obvious concern if Mazda is now replacing the part with a new material. This is a major safety concern as a major accident could have occurred. Luckily, the incident did not result in an accident or injuries. Now there is a concern for the other three TPMS which are also corroded and the same issue can happen. Mazda needs to issue a safety recall since I am afraid to drive my infant and toddler until all TPMS are replaced with the new TPMS design.

Both rear tire pressure sensors failed due to either over-tightening or corrosion. Both sensors snapped off right below the sensor stem cap causing both rear tires to deflate. On a newer car still under warranty, Mazda claims sensors are only covered until 36000 miles. And they're not cheap either ($80 each, not including installation.)
