I have rarely had a tire stem problem with a new tire, wheel in my lifetime until I purchased this 2007 Montana 3000RK. Trying to get this rig home in one piece was a challenge as one valve stem would leak after 40 lbs of pressure and a second one would drop from 80 lbs to 50 lbs shortly after filling and yet a third stem leaked very slowly. Changing tires on the road at 5.00 am was not my idea of fun either. Oh, and did I mention that the owners of two separate large tire service center both stated that these original valve stems were of a very inferior quality and should never have been used on high pressure tires. It makes me wonder just how many Keystone owners out there have also had the same problem but did not bother to post on this forum.
