The problem
Kibbi, LLC (Kibbi) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Renegade Vienna vehicles manufactured February 9, 2015, to June 1, 2016, and 2014-2016 Renegade Villagio vehicles manufactured March 4, 2013, to June 6, 2016. While checking or filing the rear inner tires, the valve stem extensions may inadvertently be loosened, resulting in a slow air leak.
The risk
If the valve stem extensions loosen and allow air to leak, the tires may be underinflated, increasing the risk of tire failure and a crash.
The fix
Kibbi will notify owners, and dealers will replace the valve stem extensions, free of charge. The recall began on July 6, 2016. Owners may contact Kibbi customer service at 1-574-966-0196. Kibbi's number for this recall is Sprinter 6302016.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
