The price depends on the type of stem: rubber, metal or one with a TPMS sensor. Dispatch confirms it before a driver is sent.

The work, on site

  • A technician in high-visibility workwear kneeling at a car's front tire, with a portable air compressor beside it.

The problem

When a tire keeps losing air and there's no nail in it, the valve stem is a common cause. Rubber stems dry out and crack in the Texas heat, and a damaged stem can't hold pressure. Replacing the stem stops the leak without replacing the tire.

While you wait

  • Listen at the valve for a hiss, or brush on soapy water and look for bubbles.
  • Don't drive far on a tire that's losing air quickly.
  • Stay clear of the roadway while you wait.

Valve Stem Replacement FAQs

Soapy water brushed over the stem will bubble if that's where the air is escaping. If you can't tell, say so when you request help: a nail or screw is a different job.

Most newer cars do, because the tire pressure sensor is built into the stem. Tell dispatch your vehicle's year, make and model and they can confirm the price for that type.
