ExtremeTerrain and aftermarket TPMS

[Klicht87]

I bought a set from rockauto for around 25 or 30 dollars and they worked as soon as I pulled out of the tire shop. 20k miles on them and zero issues

Rockauto is my go-to for parts, if they have them.

Same thing happened to me with Extreme Terrain. No refund and horrible customer service. Will never buy from them again. Northridge 4x4 and Discount tire are awesome.

Thank you for your kind words! We appreciate your patronage!

@Discount Tire all the way, when it comes to Tires! Can’t beat the service, and exceptional customer service down here in Tucson! (Please pass this down DT)

Sorry that happened to you man, hopefully everything is good now! ??

My preference is Discount Tire. I buy the sensors with the wheels and tires. That way, one place is responsible for everything, if there's a problem. I also pay for the Road Hazard warranty.

Thank you for the shout outs! We appreciate your business!

Guess what? The pos sensors that extreme terrain sold me, that had to get programmed at the dealership, Stopped Working again! Do not buy tpms sensors from ET. They will not work. I’ve already ordered genuine Mopar tpms sensors and will install them at some point.

I still do not understand what "programming" the dealership actually did for a system that is suppose to just passively pick up the signal and sync them?

If all they did was put in and let out air to make the sensor activate, that is not programming.

This is true. I recently purchased 4 tires and wheel from XT. Service was amazing. they gave me no hassle when i wanted to return my FlashCal superchip thing too. The sales people in chat are extremely knowledgeable IMO and even gate me extra discount codes at purchase. The only issue i had was teh weights came off in shipping (tires pre-installed on wheels and balanced) @Discount Tire did it for free!! Sensors synced right up (i chose the aftermarket ones) have not had an issue with them at all +6k miles. I would buy from XT again and Discount is always top notch!

I recently bought aftermarket TPMS sensors from ExtremeTerrain. DO NOT BUY THEM. Yes, I bought the correct sensors as per the build date code on my Jeep. (the post 6/21 model). The box explicitly states O.E. Replacement Sensor No Programming Necessary. This is not true and it cost me an additional $200 to have these programmed at my local Jeep dealership. ExtremeTerrain customer service was absolutely useless. They advised they could issue me a refund if I returned the sensors that were already MOUNTED IN THE TIRES. I posted 2 reviews, which I am certain they will not publish...again. So I am going to post here for everyone to see. I especially hope ET sees this, as I will Never, Ever buy anything from them again. They lost a customer for life over the cost of 4 sensors. Quadratec from now on for everything.

sorry you are having such issue with these parts. It must be very aggravating.

Read the last 20 or so reviews on Extreme Terrain for the tpms sensors. I’m hardly the only one who is experiencing this issue. If it were this simple there wouldn’t be an issue.

I just checked my JScan app and there is PID's for programming specific TPMS ID's to the Radio Frequency Hub. That is new to me.

For the record, never doubted you had problems, just trying to understand what was meant by "Programming" for a system that is suppose to auto ID.

Hopefully you get it sorted with ET.

Edit: Just wondering, did they drop out after a tire rotation?

Nope, they just quit working one by one over the course of a couple days. Frustrating to say the least.

I'm fairly certain that XT does not sell self branded merch like the other retailer that you mentioned would get your business. I have been dealing with XT, and other retailers for decades now, and if I have a warranty issue, I go to the mfr of the thing... I only go the the retailer in the case of an out of box failure. XT has never given me any issues, and unlike a couple other mentioned here, usually always has parts in stock.

I too am also a Discount Tire patron... they have and will always treat you right!

@Artsifrtsi Thank you for your patronage and continued support!

XT has several house brands. Barricade, Raxiom and Red Rock are a few of them. XT may not actually own any of them but for the most part, XT has exclusive partnerships with them.
